Erowid is open (again?)
I received a reply from CNB. The PR officer assured me that CNB “does not censor any website”, and claimed that he/she even visited the page to be sure. Said officer then advised that I should check with my ISP on why the website is blocked.
Following this puzzling revelation (also affirmed by shawn, cy and arnold), I revisited the site and discovered that if “www” is excluded from the URL, the page is easily accessible; whereas including the “www” causes it to qualify for the shitlist. This is consistently reproducible on my system. If you’re on an ISP other than PacNet please give it a shot (click on the links below) and let me know… It might be time for me to grill PacNet.
Whatever the case, kudos to CNB for the prompt reply.
P.S. This is living proof of the utter stupidity and ineffectiveness of hardcoded filters.
