I am not inclined to react so strongly. In general I am happy when the ISP provides its customers with default save settings. It is best for most people, I think.

Perhaps the rsync port 873 should have been opened by default in the firewall, because I suspect more and more people will use it to backup their data over the internet. 

But in general I can live with changing the modem settings temporarily, because I am updating the ConText minimals infrequently only.

Hi Hans,

I think that this is a scandal, as it is nothing else but censorship by
your ISP.

I am a member of a cooperative hoster in Germany (Hostsharing) and
Telekom, the biggest German ISP, blocked our mail servers for years in their
routers they bundle with internet access services.

We had to complain at the Netzagentur a state agency which has to
guarantee net neutrality in Germany – we were successful.

Maybe the context community should complain somewhere about this.
