World's biggest ISPs drag feet on critical DNS patch

Oh give me a break. There was an August 7 "Deadline" for patching then some ass hat decided to release the exact problem early. Large ISPs have more than a few DNS servers and probably do not have a large army of DNS admins. Due to the large number of DNS servers large ISPs use it's going to take them some time test and patch all of their servers.

Comcast P2P class action pointless

Nothing can come of it other than blood sucking lawyers getting rich on the backs of Comcast customers who are paying all the bills.

Better off bribing Congress like the NCTA does if you want that changed.

Re: Comcast P2P class action pointless

And we will have to look with skepticism on any posts from now on that funchords makes about Comcast since he is now suing them.

But come to think about it, we may see little or nothing on the subject of Comcast from now on by funchords. I am sure his lawyers will tell him to not comment while the case is ongoing.

That's like saying we should look with skepticism someone who makes political comments who also donates to political parties.

 I read his posts with skepticism because he can't provide technical analysis separate from editorializing and grandstanding.

PR guys make bad technical analysts, and analysts aren't good at PR. Trying to do both isn't appearing to work out for Robb.
