The next biggest student entreprenuer idea - how to out source broadband internet service provider into campus residential hall? It's going to be a multi-million dollar busines.
Above is a forum topic I posted two days ago, and my port was subseuently blocked........ following is the intersting correspondent that may be you would be interested to know how ITS is doing their job.

I believe I have not been able to use DC++ since it had been blocked (unless you are telling me the expensive device that you bought is not working). Your request to block my port base on my posted forum topic is unreasonable. I believe it is exploitation of authority to punish free speech.
What I voiced out in the forum is what I truly believe in. If a student were to outsource a broadband service to campus, it is going to significantly improve the efficiency of ITS. it is just according to what I learn from free market in Economics.
I would refuse an interview with the deputy with my port being blocked without good reason. Please understand I am refusing this interview not because I am afraid to speak to you, but my reluctance to obey your unreasonable command. i.e. blocking my port is not a good way to ask me to speak to you.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Further to your correspondence with regards to the usage of DC++ and subsequently your post on the forum, a request has been made by the Deputy Director of IT, Mary Visser for your port to be blocked pending an interview with Mary.
Please contact Mary Visser this afternoon on 024 765 73820 or Gill Buxton, the Departmental Secretary on 024 765 23254.
