Re: Internet filtering at the packet level?

I was just thinking about man-in-the-middle attacking people to
circumvent encryption. If you give all the students your SSL key at
the start of each year (assuming you have it set to expire annually),
then the students won't get harassed about having an SSL key from an
unrecognized authority. Then the only trouble would come from SSH-ers
and *nix junkies who would realize this and probably blow the whistle.
Nevertheless, this would be a more than adequate means of
circumventing most forms of public key encryption.

Oh yeah, and did I mention that censorship is wrong and bad and evil? =-P

"As a result of the war, corporations have been enthroned and an era of
corruption in high places will follow, and the money power of the
country will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the
prejudices of the people until all wealth is aggregated in a few hands
and the Republic is destroyed. I feel at this moment more anxiety for
the safety of my country than ever before, even in the midst of war."
       Abraham Lincoln, 1864
