We’ve been gone for the last several hours. Anyone trying to access the site was met with an “Account Suspended” error page. This has never happened before and having it happen just coincidentally at the same time as we are hosting the Fitna film seems more than a little suspicious. In any event, whether it was a malicious attack, a cowardly preventative move by the service provider or a glitch (guess which one I think is least likely?) it appears to be gone now, thank goodness.

Which means I, at 2:30am, can go to sleep.

    You might say your hosting companies servers were having a Fitna. Welcome back!

    Wild guess–the Instalanche corked your bandwidth.

    The only thing we have been able to determine with relative confidence is that it had nothing to do with bandwidth problems.

    Maybe I’m not looking in the right place, but can you please tell me where on this site is a link to the Fitna movie that you say you are hosting? Thanks

PoliGazette Comments Policy

PoliGazette encourages comments from all viewpoints, especially those that disagree. Comments submitted must, however, adhere to the following standards. Comments that violate these standards may be edited or deleted without notice at the sole discretion of the editors. Commenters who repeatedly or egregiously violate these standards or who attempt to argue publicly with editors regarding the comments policy may be banned from commenting further.

(1) Comments should address the substantive content of the post. Comments that repeatedly or blatantly misrepresent the content of the post or of others' comments are not welcome. Comments that respond to something other than which the contributor or commenter may have said are irrelevant and should not be posted.

(2) Comments should avoid vulgarity as well as racial, ethnic, religious, or sexual bigotry.

(3) Comments should not personally attack the character, personal integrity, or professional reputation of any PoliGazette contributor or of other commenters.

(4) Comments should reflect the contributions of the commenters themselves and should not include extensive cut-and-paste reproductions of others' words except insofar as necessary to supplement the commenter's own arguments. Link spam, trackback spam, and propaganda spam will be instantly deleted.

(5) Public figures are considered open to all substantive criticism of their policies and statements. Comments that present objectively false factual information about public figures (i.e. "Obama is a Muslim") or that attack public figures by attacking their families are not welcome. Comments that merely repeat slogans for or against a candidate without engaging in substantive comment are not welcome.

Questions or challenges to these policies or their application should be directed to the editors by email only.
