Recently I purchased a USB 3G mobile broadband dongle sponsored by T-Mobile.
It was very cheap and very locked too to this network, but luckily internet is a great resource to overcome such problems.
There is a catch though. The problem is that the buyer has to provide at the cashier Name and Address before taking it home, although no ID is necessary.
Despite that, T-mobile has a "fair usage" policy in how much data can be downloaded, and additionally has a content lock!
That means that you cannot access freely sexual content (which is probably justifiable)

unless you register by credit card, "or call 1818 from your mobile or visit your nearest T-Mobile Store".

Imagine my surprise when trying to access Blogger.com I got the same "adult lock" response!
Strangely wordpress.com is not affected by that, and blog.com wouldn't load when I tried it.
SOOOOOOOOOO
what may one think? Probably a mistake in the adult database, ORRRRRR bloggers are dangerous and should be approached with extreme caution.
