[tor-talk] ISP CenturyLink Blocking Tor?

[nathaniel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

I have been at a close friend's house recently and his provider is  
CenturyLink (at home I use TimeWarner Cable). I tried to download Tor  
Tails (over BitTorrent) and the Internet literally dropped so I closed  
BitTorrrent, afterwards I launched the Tor Browser Bundle and then my  
computer was disconnected from the router and couldn't reconnect and  
no one at the house could access the Internet, we had to reboot the  
router to fix the issue. I then enabled Pluggable Transports  
(meet-google or something like that) and now I'm able to connect to  
Tor without any issues. This really concerns me as I was able to  
repeat the crash by launching Tor Browser Bundle and crash the router  
again.

This worries me as I can see a direct link (Launch Tor Browsre Bundle  
without Pluggable Transports) and (Router and Internet require  
Reboot). Could this be a form of censorship within the United States?

I will be returning home today but this is really worrying me as it  
could be a form of censorship within the United States.

Does anyone have any ideas or thoughts about this?
