Re: AWS Web Application Firewall blocks ISP ranges?

[Aaron Wendel <aaron () wholesaleinternet net>]

Yes.

our network is a mix of content and eyeballs and they listed the whole

text to speech application (for their deaf students) as well as others.  
This has also affected the local library and residences.

It's a PITA.

Thanks Amazon.
