No. That's the number for Mice Chat.

So what's the numerical for LoT? How do we find this info?

I don't think LOT is on a dedicated server or has a static IP, so I'm not sure if you can. When I ping it, the IP address I'm given just takes you to Lunarpages.

Worth a look-see.

BOING BOING'S GUIDE TO DEFEATING CENSORWARE
(see story here)

"The Internet interprets censorship as damage
and routes around it." -- John Gilmore

If your employer or corrupt, undemocratic, dictator-based government uses a filtering service such as Secure Computing's SmartFilter to block access to BoingBoing.net -- or anything else online -- you can try the following workarounds:

* Distributed BoingBoing mirrors everything on BoingBoing.net at random IP addresses to foil filters.

* Read "Technical Ways to Get Around Censorship," a helpful primer from Reporters Without Borders: Link.

* Google can act as a lightweight, proxy-like tool for accessing forbidden sites -- but don't rely on this method for anonymity. Link.

* The popular RSS reader Bloglines can offer lightweight help in some cases, too. Boing Boing reader Tom Jeziorny says, "I work for a BIG financial services company that apparently uses (not-so-) SmartFilter because BoingBoing has recently become a forbidden site. I use Bloglines as my RSS reader so that I can access the blogs I read from work and home. It turns out that Bloglines is acting as sort of a proxy, since it connects to your RSS feed and not my computer, I'm still able to read BoingBoing at work. Since you publish the full text of your entries in your feeds I'm not missing much, though any photos linked directly from your site are edited out."

* A group called Peacefire created proxy software called Circumventor to bypass censorware. Install this software on your home computer and allow others to use your proxy to access the web, or use your proxy from work or school to access any web site. (Thanks, Sean!)
