Yes, but Advance Internet isn't an ISP, it's a division of Newhouse 
Newspapers and exists primarily to service the Newhouse new media outlets. 
Cleveland.com, for example, is co-owned with the Cleveland _Plain Dealer_.

You'd think the company would be more careful about protecting a major 
extension to its core business.
