| reply to tx_tower Re: Connection limiting, simple and effective solution w/ no big
Connections are irrelevant. Internet Service Providers need look no further than the IP packet header to determine how to handle my traffic.
ISPs need not waste money on "intelligent" devices to figure out what they'd rather do with a packet instead of what they're paid do with a packet (i.e. ROUTE IT). -- Robb Topolski -= funchords.com =- Hillsboro, Oregon FCC Public Hearing on the Future of the Internet - Thursday, April 17th - Stanford Univ., Calif. |

| Honestly, get a grip, and put down the piracy Kool-Aid
as many open-source projects show, open source apps have WAY more people working on them, and embrace outside help, the end result of which is that those apps end up being light-years ahead of closed-source apps. A couple of corps working on "intelligent" inspection techniques is no match for a worldwide cooperative effort that has the capability to turn out bug fixes/improvements on a daily basis. You just have way more people looking at the code, and editing it.
End moral of story: Let Big Brother/Uncle Sam do the policing/net nanny honors. ISP's should be protected from any liability from the music industry, and be nothing more than 'dumb pipe' providers. And, on a side note, file transfer protocols have been around since the birth of the 'net. In the 90's, it was FTP. Now, it's p2p. So get over the paranoia, and adapt to the times. New times, new demands, new rules. Get a grip, **AA. |
