I'm glad they limit streaming and such, though according to the Faster Forward blog at washingtonpost.com, sites such as Facebook and eHarmony are also blocked.

Facebook wasn't blocked, it's URL shortening service ("fb.me") was blocked inadvertantly as it was seen as a "dating site". Oddly Myspace wasn't blocked which, if memory serves me right, it is on Megabus (but not on Boltbus).

No hope for streaming video either, YouTube and Hulu are both blocked (as is on Megabus and not Boltbus).
