So you should be happy if a lot of your data is coming from Akamai. This means that you are browsing websites who are currently mirrored on the Akamai network and, consequently, the data is being transferred from Port Louis (instead of it being from the USA or Europe...) and, because MyT allows up to 2Mbit/s locally, your browsing experience should be much better. So there is no real ground to complain. Akamai is a content delivery network and has servers in Mauritius. So you should be happy if a lot of your data is coming from Akamai.

I also suggest that group (if you intend to create and lead it) will have to be affiliated with NNSQUAD (nnsquad.org) in order to deal with Facebook-ICTA like issues. Hey Avinash (can I call you Avinash or do I call you Sir? I'll call you Sir)..huh...Hey Sir, is it worth to go for MyT or should I go for ADSL 512KBps, from your pov? I merely update my OSs, watch streaming channels on Miro, download ISOs of Gentoo, Fedora and Damn Small Linux off FTP when new ones are available and do basic surfing. I'm just scared that I won't be able to watch HD streams off Miro with MyT once the limit has been exceeded. Anyway, have a good day.

We need to get the surveys to a credible organisation. We need to form a group, an open group, affiliated with EFF. United We Fight, United We Win. Cam we contact EFF?
