the library blocked AtomicBobs while I was using it.

So, the library is monitoring wht their patrons are doing on the internet?! Seems rather creepy!

Local library policies...

I'm in my town's library... a little place I've never visited before. I normally drive a bit further and go to a really nice library where, unfortunately, I'm not allowed to have a library card. Sad

But at this local library, after perhaps 15 minutes of surfing, AtomicBobs went down. Every other internet site remained accessible.

For a while, I thought AB must have crashed. Then I checked its status using ISUP.me and saw that it was still running. Only *I* can't access it. That's not at all cool. It appears that the library blocked AtomicBobs while I was using it. @#$!.

Once I realized what had happened, I found a free proxy service (hidester.com) and got right back in. It takes more than being blocked by a library firewall to stop me!

Of course, hidester might get blocked in a few minutes as well. If that happens, I may have to complain to the librarian and ask her to add atomicbobs.com to the library's whitelist.
