Obviously some of us survived and some of us didn't.  That's not to say they
aren't getting around to it later though...

My brother's machine is still web-available as is mine and we are in vastly
different areas.  I think they merely shut down some of the ones producing
higher traffic.  It has definitely made a difference though... I am down to
only 100+ hits per day now as opposed to the previously higher rate of 500+.
(rates are guestimated, not measured and then approximated.)  I hope they
don't block us all off or I will be forced to seek other alternatives in my
web hosting efforts...like running on port 8080 or 81 or something like
that... I hate non-standard ports though... it's just kinda ugly...oh
wait... :)  I GOT IT!!!

To anyone wondering what do to?  How about setting up HTTPS!!  That's not
port 80 either!!  Most people would not object to allowing a secure
connection either!  The other part of the work-around would be setting up
alternative server names like "secure.domain.com" or the like as the
redirected point of service.  I think that's a happy alternative for those
with a blockage of port 80.
