LEB Hacked?
Just noticed something in the javascript that may be worth a look
Very strange...
Thanked by 1drmike

You looking at LEB on your phone (or other cellular device)? Seems the bmi.js thing is used by some cellular providers and may be some sort of caching/compression system. Probably not evil.

Wow, I never expected that.
Never seen that before either. Thanks. May explain a couple of phantom problems we've been having.
You can get around that by using a VPN after you got your 3G-connection established. That's how I'm doing it. It also enables you to use Voip properly.
Yup, I'm going to explain how to do that to a soccer mom.....
Well, I wouldn't mind if they would just reduce the amount of data being transferred by just compressing the html and images. It's just bad that these aggressive compression has these bad side-effects. However, I guess for us its circumventable. The laymen has bad luck. In the end its a bad behaviour by the providers.
Doubt they'll ever see it as such though.
