Either way, it's served its purpose. It got the attention of the media, which in turn gets the attention of the companies.

After a full night, if I use Roger's DNS (64.71.255.198) I still can't reach the page (forbidden) and changing the DNS to 4.2.2.1 for instance gives me instant access to the site. Also, it used to work with the Rogers DNS...
I agree that the site has served its purpose, but I wonder what other sites Big Rogers is trying to prevent me from reaching... We're not in China as far as I know

How is Rogers preventing you from reaching this site?

Monitoring traffic too, but so far things seem relatively OK. We'll see...
If you're desperate to open the site though, here you go:

Some were once arguing that Sweden's plans were worse... At least they have shown they care about there customers... Those who will still purchase the iPhone on July 11, 2008 will be doing themselves and all data customers in Canada a disservice...

Telia revises iPhone service plans for Sweden

News Category: iPhone

Following complaints from potential customers regarding the voice, text, and data limits on its previously announced iPhone 3G service plans, Swedish iPhone carrier Telia has revised its service offerings for the soon to be released handset. Instead of modifying the plans for the iPhone 3G, the carrier has chosen to allow users to pick from its existing plans for other mobile phones, then add a 199 SEK (roughly $33) unlimited data option. It remains to be seen whether other international iPhone carriers facing public scrutiny over their service plan pricing, such as Rogers in Canada, will follow suit and modify their plans to meet customer demand.

Now that Rogers has announced the 6 gigs for $30 data plan, I'm going to buy an iPhone.
