    Re: LFPF - malware provider?

    One of my first jobs, in 1967 was 16 year old Telephone company part time night janitor. I was hired by somebody I forgot and after that I never saw anyone. I would get buzzed into the switching room, which was giant stacks of clicking mechanical relays. I swept the floor and changed light bulbs. Big batteries on one wall and after a while I noticed the wire taps located on another wall. This was a very wealthy Chicago suburb, Highland Park, and must have had plenty to tap. The real crew, that I never saw, would put random, or not, conversations on the PA for everyone's entertainment. I heard plenty of very long sex audio, and other mysterious happenings...

    There are a lot of images in several threads that are NSFW. That will get this site blocked by most corporate IT monitors... at least by US standards.

    Once when I tried to use this site at work I was denied access. The reason given was that it was a porn site.

    My work site blocks some of the web sites used to host photos, but it has never blocked the site.

    I just bought a Cisco ISA 550 "router" (routes, scans, reports, monitors, all kinds of networking options and services, etc.) and this site gets blocked under the "web site reputation" filter. So whatever list Cisco uses, the site is on it for whatever reason.

    Depending on the settings, trivialities like a self-signed or freeware SSL key, or even foreign (to the domain) hosting may give a site a low "web site reputation". So that is a somewhat poor metric for a international non-profit site - follow that advice when it comes to sites that want your CC number, but elsewhere it is as pointless as a sticker telling you that your newspaper is not a bank approved ATM...

    I usually use a VPN at work or at hotels to bypass pay walls, registration and website filters. Tor also works but is slower.

    If you have a uppity and downright stupid IT department like I do it's nice to be able to browse the web and keep them in the dark.
