This is an urgent message to the subscribers:

Yesterday, I got two letters in my mail box: one, from the company which used to provide my Internet access, and the other from the company which bought
them out.

Coincidentally, I found out that I was unable to log in to the Telecom Digest server: my ability to start an "SSH" secure connection had bee blocked. The
new owners' sent a glossy brochure telling me how great they are, and
providing an "800" number to call in case of problems.

I call their toll-free number several times, and spoke to several
people, and finally to someone who told me his name was "Thomas" and
who promised to solve the problem within an hour.

That was fourteen hours ago.

[snipped part of original]

I tried to reach the sales department at "Zito Media," just to ask what it would cost to have the restriction removed. Nobody answered. If any of you
have a contact there, please ask them to get in touch with me, and thank you in advance.
