Charter, Please Die Now
March 24, 2006
Ok Charter. You officially bite. Hard. Like with blood and stuff.
Not only are they now filtering incoming port 80 (HERE YE HERE YE, YE SHALL NOT USE THE ENTIRE INTERNETS FOR WHAT YOU WISH); but they're also doing it for business class accounts. This is baffling to me. They've already reemed you for all that they can (I don't buy this 'it uses too much bandwidth' bullshit), why should they keep you from hosting a piddly little web site? News for ya, dipshits; if I want to transfer large non-interactive files - it won't be over HTTP.
The best part is that I had forgotten how idiotic their techs were. I humored one as she ran her tests on our host, despite the fact that I told her it was filtered. "It shows that we filter Aych Tee Em Ell servers". Hah, an HTML server... so that's what the kids are calling it now-a-days.
Oh, also, 90$/month for 1.5Mb Internet + Local Basic Phone + Dirt Basic cable, if anyone is curious as to their "real" pricing.
