My internet connection has been extremely slow for months: when connecting to certain websites I'd have to wait several minutes to load the page. However, the connection is very quick when I transfer data.
Recently, I decided to investigate. Apparently my company is dropping connection to a vast amount of domains; this wouldn't be a problem, if they didn't include a lot of CDN among those domains.
I asked the IT technician, who said that the security system mistakes CDNs for spam addresses.
Now people, host your own style sheets please, as I otherwise have to wait several minutes to get bootstrap, which you use for setting a header and nothing more.

I'm amazed by the fact that hundreds of people work here and nobody ever complained about it...

Fuck CDN, Fuck people dropping packets rather than rejecting them.
