Where do you get the must encrypt part?  That was somewhat implied 
in the overturned Privacy rules, but those are gone.   And even there 
the rules were not absolute on encryption - how you protected the 
records was up to you.

I would have to dig it out, it appears to me the whole thing was set aside for 
now for the smaller operators.  
We are now BIAS providers.  Basic Internet Access Service.  And the CDNs and 
Googles of the world are now all Edge Providers.  And we are all part of the 
Public Switched Telephone Network (without the switching) so that was renamed 
PTN I think.  

Other things are totally off the table like internal content providers.  We can 
prioritize internal services all we want.  
They are pretty specific about transparency requirements but it would be in 
everyone’s best interest to describe the exact nature of the offering on your 
web site.  Comcast got a pretty big fine for not being forthcoming about some 
details of some offerings.

I have read the whole thing FCC rule.  We all get ROW access, we can only do 
traffic shaping if we are doing it for technical reasons and not discriminating 
(we can discriminate, but it has to be all streaming or all browsing or all of 
one certain type  of traffic).  And we must, must, must encrypt all customer 
info.  Not just keep it on an internal network, but any spreadsheet you have 
with customer identifying information must be encrypted.  I am not seeing a big 
impact for WISPS.  And you are all exempt until December 15th too if you have 
less than 100,000 subscribers.

We get stuck with all of the CPNI requirements.   No more helping out 
the kid with his router - the account owner MUST be found!  And verify 
everything with the super secret password. Ok - so I exaggerate, but 
this is going to make things more difficult.


I'm not sure what exactly the point of 'encrypt all customer data' is 
given that the front end is still going to be a web interface that 
happily decrypts every bit of data and displays it in plain text.
Never let logic get in the way of a bureaucrat implementing a

Here is the actual law:

http://www.ecfr.gov/cgi-bin/text-idx?SID=e3e960806c00e1d3c9d0349925c64af9node=sp47.3.64.urgn=div6

It doesn't specify encryption though it does have:

(a) Safeguarding CPNI. Telecommunications carriers must take reasonable 
measures to discover and protect against attempts to gain unauthorized 
access to CPNI. Telecommunications carriers must properly authenticate a 
customer prior to disclosing CPNI based on customer-initiated telephone 
contact, online account access, or an in-store visit.


It could be argued that plain text over the Internet (Telnet, non-HTTPS) 
isn't reasonable.


I believe the companies that were fined had the customer data on a 
publicly facing website with no or defective authentication.

And entering the data for each subscriber is mostly redundant

Re: [AFMUG] Consumer Blogs on Net Neutrality

2015-03-19 Thread Chuck McCown
Here are the new and additional rules:
53. 
Section 222: 
Protecting Consumer Privacy. Ensuring the privacy of customer information both 
directly protects consumers from harm and eliminates consumer concerns about 
using the Internet that could deter broadband deployment. 
Among other things, section 222 imposes a duty on every telecommunications 
carrier to take reasonable precautions to protect the confidentiality of its 
customers’ proprietary information. 

We take this mandate seriously. For example, the Commission recently took 
enforcement action under section 222 (and section 201(b)) against two 
telecommunications companies that stored customers’ personal information, 
including social security numbers, on unprotected, unencrypted Internet servers 
publicly accessible using a basic Internet search. 

This unacceptably exposed these consumers to the risk of identity theft and 
other harms.

Here is the actual law:

http://www.ecfr.gov/cgi-bin/text-idx?SID=e3e960806c00e1d3c9d0349925c64af9node=sp47.3.64.urgn=div6

It doesn't specify encryption though it does have:  

(a) Safeguarding CPNI. Telecommunications carriers must take reasonable 
measures to discover and protect against attempts to gain unauthorized access 
to CPNI. Telecommunications carriers must properly authenticate a customer 
prior to disclosing CPNI based on customer-initiated telephone contact, online 
account access, or an in-store visit.

It could be argued that plain text over the Internet (Telnet, non-HTTPS) isn't 
reasonable.

I believe the companies that were fined had the customer data on a publicly 
facing website with no or defective authentication.

  Is WISPA going to put out some clarification for us as far as what exact

  And this exemption, for tiny bastards like the company I work for, will that

We get stuck with all of the CPNI requirements.   No more helping out the

with the super secret password. Ok - so I exaggerate, but this is going to 
make things more difficult.

I'm not sure what exactly the point of 'encrypt all customer data' is given 
that the front end is still going to be a web interface that happily decrypts 
every bit of data and displays it in plain text.Never let logic get in the

 Your CEO gets to swear to {insert FCC Deity} on a yearly basis that you
 have done everything you can to make the Interwebs work for disabled people.

  FCC rules cover basic and special telecommunications services,
 including regular telephone calls, call waiting, speed dialing, call
 forwarding, computer-provided directory assistance, call monitoring, caller
 identification, call tracing and repeat dialing, as well as voice mail and
 interactive voice response systems that provide callers with menus of
 choices. 

 When conducting market research, product design, testing, pilot
 demonstrations and product trials, companies should include individuals
 with disabilities in target groups for such activities. 

 Is being an politician considered a disability?

  The best way to provide the information that the Disability Rights
 Office needs to assist you, is to complete the Request for Dispute
 Assistance (RDA Form) https://esupport.fcc.gov/ccmsforms/RDAformEnglish
 online. 

 Um... OK.

 The FCC came up with the rules after the 'pretexting' scandals and used
 a sledgehammer to kill a mosquito.

 In any case it's going to be interesting to see how this plays out.
 The rules do not prohibit using CPNI data internally for marketing, tech
 support, etc. but I see issues trying to authentice callers for things like
 email passwords, router passwords, wifi passwords.

 I’m guessing this has to cover things like what our employees do if
 someone calls for tech support or wanting to make a change to their
 service, or if their computer guy calls for their PPPoE password or to find
 out what speed plan they are on?  And not only verifying the person calling
 is who they say they are, but also that they are authorized on the
