This morning, I phoned Telkom (0800375375), just for a simple request: To reset my ADSL ports, because wasn't Syncing at 4mbps.
Nothing serious or a hard task. So, he told me to switch off my router, etc. etc. - The basics.

And here comes the best part: He tells me to go to the following address: www(dot)freenn(.)com (NSFW), to test the connection. I told him that google opened, so it should be fine.
Then out of curiosity, after I put the phone down I went to the site and guess what its Pron site. :sick::sick:

I'm really disgusted how this Telkom Operator can ask me to go on such sites. And worst of all, my 12year old brother sat next to me. Luckily, I managed to close the browser when I saw the the browser header change.

Not a chance.. He even spelled it to me.

Unfortunately I don't have a reference, as asking to Reset ports is done instantly.
 
lmfao!!! Hilarious!! You sure that web site wasn't in your history already? ;)

On a serious note though, that is kinda f'd up, still funny as ***** though!
 
HAHA rickrolled ftw! :) I wouldve laughed hard if it was me, altho the 12 year old part sucks..

Moral of the Story: Secure your browsing with a 12 year old in the house.
