Inode/Chello/UPC altering internet traffic, displaying porn advertisement
To help users to find faster, what they are searching for (as they describe it) or to generate revenue from typos (as I would describe it), my provider (Inode, now part of UPC) decided to start intercepting DNS queries and changing the results for unregistered domains. As you can see, their advertisements includes stuff like "sex toys" and "dildo" shops. No thanks, UPC.Click here for an example
Update 2008/09/03: Heise reported about it too now

Jetzt isses eh schon zu spät, hab nen netten DNS-Server gefunden (unbound). Wobei das Opt-Out für mich eh nicht geht, da ich kein Chello-Kunde bin (in den Kundendaten steht aber, dass ich die Chello-Nameserver verwenden soll)
