As I say I am far more concerned about 'modern' incompetent ISP's. Uncaring ISPs or ISP's that can only care about profit (and so advertising) or they are out of business and tasking them (perhaps to their delight) with layer 7 filtering which requires great care and expertise and arguably only securable passively which I am sure they will not be doing. This should certainly be stopped as it may give people with mostly evil intentions similar access as the NSA or just reduce reliability perhaps at a time when the net is needed most. Sounds like it was quite a bit of work though or was that mostly the resistance? Global government surveilance is not going to be stopped or the backbone avoided and atleast likely comes from mostly good intentions even if it is bound to be abused or infiltrated at times. -- _______________________________________________________________________ 'Write programs that do one thing and do it well.
