Prejudice

[VasiliZaitsef]

Dear Sirs

We are Brazilian and since 02/22, so 7 days, we cant get acess to a .cz page.

All of us from Brazil can't connect to Home Page http://hyperfighter.jinak.cz/
Anybody in other part of world can connect normally at that site and his servers. We have already confirmed that.

The person who is responsable for this site tell us it is a problem with his ISP jinak.cz
This ISP have blocked all access from Brazil. It seems that have some kind of rule to block any IP starting with 200.
We can not contact with the jinak.cz.

Could you please look for some information about what is the reason for that? Block a entire country!

I thank you so much in advance for any information.

Vasili

Some tempers have flared up but most realize the situation and patently await some news. DDos attacks? Any news is good news __________________________________Regards, Gunny.

From what I understand, HL was being hacked by someone in South America. So, either Jiri or his ISP blocked access to everyone from there. It is nothing to do with predjudice, just a precautionary, and hopefully temporary security measure.There's no telling how long this will last. Let's hope not long. In the meantime, there are some good pilots on UBI who are willing to shoot you down whenever you want. :)S~Seeker
