Probably not surprising to anyone, but not entirely uninteresting.
Works for me with a VPN to Australia, so yeah, probably just ISPs being shit. Nothing new, I guess.

The thing is, liberal means something rather specific to me - open, against regulations. If you're socially liberal, I'm probably on board. If your liberal regarding the financial market, we'll probably disagree.
I suppose someone who is extremely liberal in all regards following this definition would be what most people in the U.S. would call a libertarian.
In the end, shouting at clouds about me thinking that people are using words wrong won't do much, and generally I'm very open to language evolving, but this one always gets me because it's one region specifically using it differently than what I learned.
