Well ... I'm a geek? So I work from home, where I have my own network, which has its own nameservers, where I can configure the server to claim to be authoritative for any domain in the world. I think of it as my Bigger Hammer. I use it when people put up autoplay videos, mostly, because a lot of those (for some reason) don't get caught by ad-blockers (which I use on other sites). I'm a little disappointed that I got this one here, since I'm on the "ad-fewer" subscription.

So ... if you're running bind, or another nameserver and can convert between bind configs to that server, I can give you the bind recipe for blocking wibbitz.com (or any other domain of similar ill-repute) with a Bigger Hammer. If this all sounds like black magic from the heart of evil ... then anything I can offer prolly won't be useful?

Sorry for the delayed response. I had to take time out from commenting to do some work. Life is so unfair!

The remake of that episode, The Trouble With Trumples would require about a four to one ratio of Trumple shit to Trumple pouring out onto his head.

I consider the Deep Space Nine episode the first remake.

I think we're witnessing the even more ominous second remake.

True, it's the most obvious, but all the other services, governmental and otherwise, are still no less crucial to the functioning of society on the everyday level.
