Not only are they targeting sites with heavy bandwidth use, but also do a general "key word" block on website names. Not only are words like "sex", "fxxx" etc. are blocked, but even Chinese words like "Gan", "Chao", etc. are blocked. Since a few of my clients websites unfortunately have names that sounds like a curse, they are blocked.

I told them this is a very ridiculous policy, and he agrees to relay my opinions to their IT staff.

Horrific.
