ISP Filtering (censorship) UK - BskyB joining party

well if this is anything to go by; I am definitely jumping back to BT as soon as I can. (being able to use my own router is also a bit plus point).

Shame as Sky's broadband (for me at least) has been pretty robust and stable connection speeds.

Yep sky make it hard to use VPN - hence anther reason to leave em (for me anyways)

They are the only ISP I know of that specifically states using a router/modem other than the one they supply is a violation in terms and they actually do cut people off for breeches.
