So Yahoo teams up with Road Runner to take "www" typos!
 

Type "ww.some.com"

in your browser

And this is where you go on Road Runner :

http://ww23.rr.com/index.php?origURL...//ww.some.com/

Looks like you can "opt out" though.

Is this new? I guess I don't type www enough to have found out.

I dont have a "ww" subdomain so I wonder if subdomains must be at least 3 letters.

I get a page error.. maybe your browser got hi-jacked? :)

subdomains can be any number of characters, up to whatever the maximum would be..

Are you using RoadRunner? That's just their landing page for sites that don't resolve.

They've had that running along with a 404 override for any site without it explicitly set for anyone on the roadrunner isp for a few months now...

nevermind, answers above

RR has been doing that for a while. You just have to opt out of that option.

google has been doing this for a while
check out what verizon and comcast have been doing
its getting out of control
ISPs are taking over 404s and typos and all sort browser shit

404?

WTF????

I hope you don't mean when my domain is correct but the page is 404!!

That would fucking suck hard! :mad:

I didn't get any RR page when I 404ed my domain. I shouldn't either.

My bad, I should spend more time sig whoring like you so I can learn these things. :1orglaugh

this has been going on with ISPs for some time, Rogers has been doing this for months with Yahoo. Huge profits to be made off that.
