Good news indeed, though still limited.

Unless it was fixed very recently, the UN Geneva internet is "*filtered*".

Access is barred when a user selects a DNS server of his choice, as
routinely offered on any access device. UN internet WIFI access for
visitors is only possible if the user consents to the UN DNS, which is
apparently *restricted to the ICANN root.

It would be fair to inform users of this filtering, and explain why.
