I bet you 40% of the bots come from internet cafes on younge street.


I heard about the, lock (no one comes in and no one goes out) on gaza, no internet, no electricity, its all dark running on candles right now, from the isreali occupation, just a few weeks ago (the second last friday), there was a protest downtown, infront of the isreali consulate that my sister went to...more to say, to lazy to say it

I'm getting C9 and my premium is running out!!! damn they're gonna fix it in 1>3 weeks!!! and it's getting worse, I have to keep refrshing pages, and SRF times out pretty fast compared to other web sites... sometimes I can log on to the messenger, other times I have to keep retrying...
