But you don't accept it and keep insisting on us changing TSVN to your
liking.

Sorry, no. You made it clear why you don't trust programs to behave
nice. But you rejected every proof we gave you that TSVN does nothing
bad. And you couldn't tell us why you think downloading a text file is
controversial. You just keep telling that any attempt to contact the
'home' server is bad. That's your opinion, I get that. But that's no proof.

Sorry, but that's no argument. There are so many firewalls out there,
how can someone know all of them by just looking at a screenshot?
And to be honest: I've only looked at the part where it said that TSVN
was blocked and the ip. Maybe the name "Kerio" was written somewhere,
but I didn't look for that because it isn't that important.
