  Terms Of Serivce are policy.  Filters are enforcement.  A current and/or
previous lack of enforcement does not cancel policy.  Just ask Iraq.  :-)

  Furthermore, if I were you, would not contact Adelphia about this.  It
could easily backfire.  They might not know or care about your existing TOS
violations, but complaining that you you are having trouble violating their
Terms Of Service might be considered asking for punishment.  :-)

  Like I said the other week, "Don't ask, don't tell".  If what you're doing
doesn't bother them, they won't bother you.  But if you start bothering
them, the easiest option (for them) might be to turn you off.
