Re: Nah.

"Research into "seeing past" NAT devices may someday make paying for such services less optional, as ISP's begin peeking into home networks and charging accordingly."

I'd like to see them try to peek past my hardware firewall.

Well, until the Patriot Act, that would have violated your constitutional rights (invasion of privacy w/o a warrant), now it is just a matter of a few bills and then Comcast will be allow, nay.. required to snoop past your nat box and will see how many machines and what is on them. All this in the name of security, sheesshh what next a National ID card, and indefinite detentions (oh, wait that happens now!)

But then again the Patriot Act says that you are responsible for your connection. If someone launches an attack from your connection, then be prepared to get a visit from the FBI.

As well you they should be. Only the irresponsible retards that proclaim themselves "sysadmins" get visits from the feds.
