Just installed Peerblock and couldn't visit geekzone because some IPs from Datacom were blocked.

I think it's safe to assume these are safe to allow? (I have allowed them temporarily for now)

Does anyone else use Peerblock?

You coud just unblock the geekzone.co.nz and cdn.geekz1.com IP addresses?

But, yes, I'd assume the Datacom IP addresses are safe.

Or you could just allow HTTP, no need to block it unless you are blocking ads with peerblock?

But if you're blocking ads how does Geekzone get paid? (apart from subscribers that is :)
