The Freenode saga keeps getting weirder.

Today: Freenode has blocked IRCCloud users from accessing their network.

From IRCCloud's Twitter feed: "We reiterate our recommendation to switch to a network that is secure, reliable, and has respect for the free choices made by the communities it hosts."

This is so utterly boneheaded, it boggles the mind.

You'd think it's impossible to destroy a network that's been around for more than two decades in less than four weeks.
