In-flight Wi-Fi: good speeds but no porn

WirelessG/G-Connect launched their highly anticipated in-flight Wi-Fi service promising a good Internet experience at 10,000m altitude

So who got the magic ticket to fly around pinging Speedtest.net?

 

[Mike Hoxbig]

Ah, that evil pr0nz again! You're welcome to visit sites like rotten.com, but don't offend your fellow passengers by looking at some titties :twisted:

Funny thinking and having experienced this for free on delta while being the states... comparing to the big hoohaa

I'm going to take a flyer (no pun intended) and assume P2P Networking has also
been blocked. This is Vodascum (G-Connect) we're talking about after all.

How exactly do you see the need to do P2P on a service like this>

Well, if there is enough peers on the flight it might just work

They've left no other ways to get pron.

 

[Roadrunner]

Anyone knows which routes this aircraft flies?

As the whole fleet is not kitted out, it will be good to know which one to aim for.

I agree 100% with you, Jannie. That is no place to download the latest episode of Desperate Housewives.

However, this will in effect block Skype as well.

 

[Quey_Quick]

Surely using something like Filter Bypasser would get around their filtering?

They better be careful how they word that "guarantee".
Simple bypass is a VPN. Can't block that if they looking for business customers.

And why would you want to sit and watch porn sitting in a plane full of people?

Its not about whether or not I want to. Its knowing that I can :twisted:

Initially the Cpt-Jhb leg. Other planes in the fleet will follow quickly.

One of the questions raised about in-flight Internet access was of the potential problems related to users accessing pornography websites on flights. Van der Merwe pointed out that there is some website filtering to ensure that pornography and other offensive material is blocked.

...

Other plans include providing destination-based content and more entertainment models.

That's right. Who wants online pornography when you can have models entertaining you?

Thanks!

Why ever are prawns even news worthy?

any IT savy guy can bypass pretty much any filters.... just sayin'
