They need to help the customers at some point.<br><br><br>Side Note:  Nice new comment form, but the add comment area is too wide.  Goes right under the links on the right and then I can't see what I'm typing.

I can't get to any tech site but Engadget (thank god). <br><br>I was using Google Translate as a proxy to get to the sites, but after 10 minutes of browsing Digg, they blocked it. ThenI went to storm2k.org (weather forum) and browsed for about 5 minutes only to have it blocked too. I think they are targeting me specifically.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dustin Leiblein]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 14th 2008 6:02PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on AT&amp;T decides some employees shouldn't see the future, changes mind]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/14/atandt-decides-some-employees-shouldnt-see-the-future/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/14/atandt-decides-some-employees-shouldnt-see-the-future/</guid><description><![CDATA[Actually, it could be that whatever filtering device AT&T is using learns what you're browsing. At my school we use a system that allows us to block certain types of sites. As students browse to sites that we don't allow, but have yet to be blocked, the system scans the code of the site. If it finds something relating to a blocked rule, then the site gets blocked. <br><br>I love to see the faces of kids when a site just suddenly gets blocked that was open previously. It's even more entertaining to see them all point and blame me for doing so, when really, it's all them. Hahaha, the wonders of being a student IT guy.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[MRCUR]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 14th 2008 6:39PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on AT&amp;T decides some employees shouldn't see the future, changes mind]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/14/atandt-decides-some-employees-shouldnt-see-the-future/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/08/14/atandt-decides-some-employees-shouldnt-see-the-future/</guid><description><![CDATA[What....people surfing the web at work.
