Le site akamai.net est-il sûr ?

I've be trusting akamai.net for years (since I first researched it the hard way) -- no problems so far. Akamai provides services to organizations that are very questionable, but does not seem to share/cross-link info between different organizations. I suspect that if you block akamai.net, your useful Web browsing ability will suffer ... it is as pervasive as doubleclick.net, but seemingly as good as the latter is bad.
