Just last weekend I was blocked from foxnews.com because it had "hate/violence" (at RDU, ORD, and DFW), but had no problems getting to cnn.com, abc.com, cbs.com, nbc.com, or msnbc.com ... that strikes me as a bit odd, since they would all have very similar content in terms of news stories. The censorship seems to be going a bit far in that regard. Call me a conspiracy theorist, but it's too coincidental that of all the major networks ONLY fox news is blocked ...

I think it's a bit lame that there is no link to report problems with the internet service as well--you'd think they (the provider and the AC) would want direct feedback from AC members to resolve any issues as quickly as possible.

cheers!
