Backpage Hacked, taken down by Gov or Net Neutrality victim?

okay.. this is kinda funny and annoying at the same time.

Currently on my main system on any browser any backpage link goes to Backpage Africa..

on my phone using a different provider it's just gone period..

Probably should be happy that I saved myself a few thousand dollars over the next year.. lol but still curious whats up?.. any of you folks know?
I'm in Taiwan but bp is normal here. Goes to cities in the US and either bp or cracker for international sites. Net neutrality just insures the government can decide what is fair. That works well, doesn't it.

They have it setup that any US IP's can't view international cities, only cities in the US, this isn't new, for awhile they made it so you couldn't even see the listings for cities outside of the us, they brought that part back but you can't go to the link.

See how that works. It is a well tested propaganda procedure. Kudo's for it correct employment.

Note that I don't have strong opinion about "net neutrality", but the only arguments against its repeal are by leftwing fascist dumbasses, and are truly moronic. I know the arguments for keeping it, and somee of them are valid, but I haven't seen a single one proferred by the "hopefully ruler" class.
