I'm in Alberta. I don't know of anyone else who has had this issue other than that one post I found on a random forum (he was from the UK).

I just had a friend on the same ISP as me try it, works for him. His tracert is basically identical, except it moves past hop #12 (xe-1-1-0.was12.ip4.tinet.net [89.149.184.38]) and gets to its destination.

Washington has banned me, obv?
