Interesting, here what I got from http://telkomspeedy.com/product-description
*** Seluruh paket dapat disisipi advertising
Man, I should go to other provider.
You know, this just makes me appreciate my $56/mo 5M internet a bit more.
@utama: nope, Adblock doesn't help. I installed it last night and the script injection is still showing on this forum source page. The only way to get rid of it from your browser is using VPN, I got a cheap one from vpn.sh here. And if you manage websites, you would need to insert that code I created above (it is simply a base64 version of < / body > tag)
hmmmm thanks for that, I am taking a screenshot of it.
@StartledPhoenix: mine is ca. $30/mo and only 1M/512kb download/upload
thanks for the tip @thsigit
this is a noob question: is that code can be inserted in wordpress?
i got 1MB for 19$/m
Yikes
Others are not as lucky in my neighborhood. These are the non-grandfathered plans that they created a year after we signed up.
Whoever the crap can use less than 40G/mo is insane (unlimited is avaliable for an extra $50/mo). I sure can't.
And for cable...
I am going to be very upset if they start dropping grandfathered plans since its a Bell/Rogers monopoly.
@utama: Aren't we all noobs, at some points. So, no such things as noob questions.
Feel free to check this screenshot, how to apply it on footer.php of a Wordpress theme:

Basically, put the little script above on any template that will output < / body > < / html > tag, to replace body closing tag. So it can be, e.g., page.tpl.php on Drupal.
@StartledPhoenix: you might be surprised that my 1MB/512kb connection is NOT among the slowest plan in here (relatively)
edit: but that is extremely expensive the options you have in there!
Get your new president to do something about it.
He looks like "i-will-change-everything-wrong-in-Indonesia" kinda guy.
unfortunately there are many things went wrong here in the yester-years. Hopefully fixing past mistakes will not create new wrong doings, tho. Fortunately am not a politician, so whatever will be, will be.
Setting up a VPN to use is probably the best idea, there are plenty of tutorials out there if you need them such as @Nyr's one here: https://github.com/Nyr/openvpn-install
lol dont upload to imgur, Indonesian ISP block it ;p (stupid pornography reason)
most major ISP 'intercept' DNS, check dnsleaktest https://www.dnsleaktest.com/
first media subscriber still can use openic or level3 DNS

use VPN
Sadly, 9 of 11 my Friend's Adsense account has disable cause another ads beside adsense this because Sapidi sucks..
that is not exactly correct. Adsense do support another ad network in one page: https://support.google.com/adsense/answer/9728?hl=en
but you must be sure that the placement is adhering to the guidelines: https://support.google.com/adsense/answer/1346295#Placing_Google_ads_on_the_same_page_with_other_ads
thus i can only say that the injection ad by speedy is still probably the cause but there maybe another reasons.
VPN, Remote Desktop, Proxy with forced SSL. All of them should do it.
someone created change.org petition here: https://www.change.org/p/pt-telekomunikasi-indonesia-tbk-hilangkan-sisipan-spam-ads-iklan-otomatis-pada-jaringan-layanan-internet-telkom-speedy-dan-jaringan-telkom-yang-lain
Have signed the petition just now..
Reminds me of life back in the dial up days:
http://abdussamad.com/archives/71-Dialup-prepaid-card-comes-with-FREE-ads.html
signed it too (and share it), lucky me stop speedy services 2 years ago
what about using a different dns? such as google's? not sure if it would make a difference or not but its a suggestion.
telkom uses transparent dns proxy, so changing dns server will do nothing unfortunately.
