[GTALUG] TekSavvy or Rogers blocking apt user agent

Well this is a new low: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1185612/apt-get-stuck-on-waiting-for-headers... Mind-boggling that it is/was even an issue at an ISP & HTTP level. Either they have a giant whitelist of browser agents to maintain, or a blacklist to update and added apt to it. In either case, they're looking at HTTP traffic and acting on it directly. Still an issue for anyone? Jamon
