Wow. Excellent. It looks like iptables may be the ticket. (If my

Yah, I had just been imagining the packet in the abstract, in flight,
where such info isn't available. B

I've never looked into this, so I don't know if/how it works, but if
NetFilter is smart enough to look
Interesting question. There's no notion of UID associated with
an IP packet so once it's in transit it's not straightforward
to know who "owns" it, unless maybe the network code happens
to be executing (synchronously) on behalf of the restricted
user (outbound only?) or maybe if the packet can

They did. It's called the Verizon Fascinate. No release date yet, but the
announcement that Samsung did a month or so ago confirmed that VzW will

It appears that iptables has an 'owner' module that could be used t
Does anyone know of a way to prevent a Linux account from accessing

E.g., setting a [per-user] gateway to nil, or setting permissions

The only reference to early upgrades I see is if your contract is up by
12/31/10. Given that most people get a new phone every two years,
there's no way that any

I've read that Android 2.2 is making its way to the original Motorola
Droid from Verizon. I've also read that it doesn't support a few key
features that I was looking for and are reported to be present in the
