Sites Cached on Saix Local

Those sites are all on the 165.165.0.0/24 IP range. TelkomInternet also has a subnet within that IP subnet; they were obviously too lazy to add just their portion of the subnet and rather added the whole 165.165.*.* which is why we're able to access these sites.

Actually no, none of those sites are on the 165.165.*.* IP range, do a traceroute from any international site that allows you to do this. It also gave me this "165.165.0.0 is from South Africa(ZA) in region Africa". Those sites are all on 165.165.*.* and accessible because it is on the local Akamai server.

Somehow I dont expect this to be the case for much longer.. whenever a window of potentially vulnerable opportunity opens up in this country, consumers milk it and exploit it so badly that it all gets limited. That's why we dont have uncapped internet, and that's why we don't have bottomless cokes at restaurants, etc. South Africans only know how to abuse... It's a pity though, because then the rest of us suffer.


lol.. becuase we abuse.. lol ..

it actually makes sense now why driver downloads from nVidia come in at a speed greater than 512kB/s on a single thread

Yeah right. Rationalization at its best. THIS IS WHY WE CANT HAVE NICE THINGS :'(

Are you really that naive?
