To all uniformed dudes reading this: if you don't want the people you serve to feel like shooting you, perhaps you should consider going on strike, immediately stopping enforcing any and all man-made laws that go against the natural law of Universe, against common sense and against basic humanity; immediately stopping following any and all orders telling you to do things that are morally wrong, and finally, switching over to our side, helping defend America and the American People against USA. In the timeless words of The Internationale: No more deluded by reaction, On tyrants only we'll make war; The soldiers too will take strike action, They'll break ranks and fight no more! And if those cannibals keep trying To sacrifice us to their pride, They soon will hear the bullets flying: We'll shoot the generals on our own side! MS Hold the Heathen Hammer High! With a battle cry! For the pagan past I live and one day will die.

Wikileaks takedown in US
by Lou Katz 05 Dec '10

Sadly, no report that I have seen has indicated that any legal process or court order was in action. -- -=[L]=- Reassembled from random thought waves ... the puckish comment of Gertrude Stein: "There ain't no answer. There ain't going to be any answer. There never has been an answer. That's the answer." Stein G. Quoted in: Gertrude Stein: In Words and Pictures. Renate Stendhal, ed.

All is "well and good", *UNTIL* "something happens" that introduces _another_ path to 'ground' that bypasses the 'high rresistance' links.

Earthlink MX from *Earthlink* dynamic IPs blocked?
by Jay Ashworth 04 Dec '10

04 Dec '10

I'm trying to get my sister's MythTV DVR to send her a daily email with its recording schedule. Earthlink is apparently blocking the email because it's coming from a dynamic address -- even though that address *is an Earthlink cablemodem*. Is there anyone from Earthlink email ops around who can confirm that's actually the proper interpretation of your policy? Cheers, -- jra

"Unlimited" wireless data...
by Jay Ashworth 04 Dec '10

04 Dec '10

This came up in another thread yesterday or today, and I just got the solicitation mailer for Clearwire's WiMAX service in Tampa Bay, which they call "4G", though the ITU disagrees. The AUP is here: http://www.clear.com/legal/aup and while it really doesn't have any hidden limits (which is good, because as someone pointed out on Slashdot today, you can use up a 5GB limit in about an hour and a half at 21MB/s), it *does* have several limits on content beyond "must not be illegal" and "must not harm our network"... which limits I though were verboten to a "common carrier". Do the high-speed wireless services *not* claim to be common carriers, as that term is understood in telecommunications law? In other news, the words "voice" and "VoIP" do not appear in the Clear AUP. So, presumably, it would be acceptable to throw their portable access point in your backpack, and carry around a WiFi VoIP phone with you... I don't seem to be able to locate the AUP that Sprint imposes on 4G customers, so I can't tell if it differs. I can't locate the VZW LTE700 AUP either. == In other news (cause it's thread-crossing-weekend on NANOG); Comcast announces 250GB residential cablemodem caps -- 2 years ago: http://gizmodo.com/5043253/comcasts-250gb-data-caps-now-official-starting-i… Cheers, -- jra
