Let's put it this way. 1. If you host government agencies, provide connectivity to say a nuclear power plant or an army base, or a bank or .. .. - you'd certainly work with your customers to meet their security requirements. 2. If you are a service provider serving up DSL - why then, there are some governments (say Australia) that have blacklists of child porn sites - and I think Interpol came up with something similar too. And yes there's CALEA and a few other such things .. not much more that's new. Separating rhetoric and military metaphors will help you see this a lot more clearly. As will not dismissing the entire idea with contempt. As a service provider for anything at all, you'll see your share of attacks. Whether coordinated by 4chan or by comrade joe chan shouldnt really matter, except at the level where you work with law enforcement etc to coordinate a response that goes beyond the technical. [And ALL responses to these are not going to restrict themselves to being solvable by technical means]. --srs On Fri, Dec 10, 2010 at 12:01 AM, Michael Smith <michael () hmsjr com> wrote:
How is "what to block" identified? ...by content key words? ..traffic profiles / signatures? Deny all, unless flow (addresses/protocol/port) is pre-approved / registered? What does the technical solution look like? Any solutions to maintain some semblance of freedom?
