Yes I know, but in my case that requires a bit of documentation
reading, configuration file editing, and rebooting. Anyway, I had
time for that this morning so I tried with another DNS server and
I can access the sites. So Telstra aren't blocking the IP addresses,
just not resolving the DNS queries for blocked domains.

This might be enough for me to switch to an alternative DNS server
permanently. In the past blocks haven't affected any sites that I
actually use, but I have used archive.is before (although I usually
find what I need with web.archive.org) and it could have been a real
inconvenience. I'll have to look into the DNS services better and
compare performance first though. What's bet that after all that
Telstra wake up and start blocking the IP addresses too?
