Gaming platforms blocking #1589

It seems like certain ISPs in Morocco have begun blocking access to gaming platforms.

See:

It would be cool if we had tests that emulate connections to such gaming platforms and check to see if they are working properly.

We should begin by making a list of the gaming platforms that we are interested in checking for reachability, add their home-pages to the testing lists and then implement tests that emulate the protocol for connecting to them.

Particularly relevant is emulating what a chat client on such platforms would be doing.
