The way I see it, there is no need to speak bad things about a country
based on bad customer support from one ISP.
Brazil is a big country(just look at google earth), and UOL is just one
big ISP in that country.
So, peace out and let SA do his job.

You guys surely must have heard about corruption here, but it doesn´t

Brazil is very serious about a lot of things, including our
participation in the open source scenario.
I am sure that a lot of countries are represented in this list, and I
am also sure that none is perfect! What if the world decided to cut
business with the US due to Bush´s politics?
I don't think anyone on this list really cares at all about internal
politics of brazil or brazil corruption or anything else about brazil.
The only fact that matters here to members of this list is that
uol.com.br is an irresponsible, abusive internet provider who pollutes
the rest of the internet with trash and does not respond to complaints.
Most anyone with half a clue has blacklisted uol.com.br years ago.
I think uol.com.br will have to become a LAN before they decide to
finally take action. That is slowly happening, like .kr and .cn are
slowly being firewalled off from the rest of the world for their
rampant abuse and cluelessness.
Hopefully brazilians have more choices than only uol.com.br for an ISP.
