issue is unintentional.
Dear Bawolff,
as far as I know no one from the WMF has called up the ISPs. Some
local Wikipedians have, but have received no answer.
Just to add: the issue discussed happens with all the ISPs in the
country, not just a single one.
For some background information please take a look at these short sections:

With all best wishes.
