So, worth noting that the 'ITP', the former NZ Computer Society or IT Professionals (of Aotearoa) *used* to have email & web services provided by a plucky Dunedin-based company. However, in a breathtaking demonstration of confidence in the domestic IT scene, have replaced all their web & emails services with a soulless foreign corporate platform, Squarespace. And they wonder why I'm no longer willing to pay their (extortionate) subs.
