Great, Angus. Tor "solves" your browsing traffic. Is TCP 80/443 traffic the only traffic that leaves your network? What type of traffic can your ISP provider snoop on using the router they provide, that they cannot snoop on when you provide your own router? Do you encrypt *all* other traffic originating from your LAN?
(For the record, while I do use ISP-provided equipment, I have a firewall between their device and my LAN, and I only use their WiFi for guest access. My stance is not necessary in support of ISP equipment, but against the obvious weaknesses of your statements) *ASB **http://XeeMe.com/AndrewBaker* <http://xeeme.com/AndrewBaker> *Providing Virtual CIO Services (IT Operations & Information Security) for the SMB market...* On Tue, Apr 15, 2014 at 1:04 AM, Angus Scott-Fleming <[email protected]>wrote: > On 14 Apr 2014 at 8:28, Andrew S.
