I understand there is this thing called a black budget. The production rate limit of plain text is human fingers. If you want to keep it all online, your burn rate is a kilobuck/day for hardware. Filtering traffic to extract relevant parts is going to cost a bit more, especially if you're using centralized taps and not server clouds in the periphery. For those of you who have worked at major ISPs, can the fact that traffic is routed through a few "customer" boxes be hidden from employees? -- Eugen* Leitl <a href="http://leitl.org";>leitl</a> ______________________________________________________________ ICBM: 48.07078, 11.61144 http://www.leitl.org 8B29F6BE: 099D 78BA 2FD3 B014 B08A 7779 75B0 2443 8B29 F6BE http://moleculardevices.org http://nanomachines.net
