I can't access sites like Eros or P411 using XFinity (Comcast) but I can when I switch to the Verizon LTE network.  Anyone know what might be going on?

If you don't mind Google having even MORE data on how you use the internet, use 8.8.8.8 and/or 8.8.4.4.  There are other public DNS servers, but that's most likely how they're censoring.

I don't use Chrome that often.  But, I do know they were playing with custom DNS settings that would ignore the system settings.  I also knows it prefetches items, which in certain cases may do an end run around any block an ISP puts in.

I let p411 know and they seemed to have fixed the problem.  Eros was apparently 'down' for awhile earlier today.  Thanks for all of the suggestions.
