UN declares Internet access a "human right"
by Gadi Evron 07 Jun '11

07 Jun '11

The title is misleading, as this is more about "denying" access. But this is still quite interesting. I don't think this has *any* operational implications, but every operator to see this was immediately worried. I figure it warrants a discussion. http://m.wired.com/threatlevel/2011/06/internet-a-human-right Gadi.

Cox outage in Alexandria, Va.
by Andy Ringsmuth 07 Jun '11

07 Jun '11

One of my employees is reporting that Cox told her a backhoe "cut a main line" somewhere in the Alexandria, Virginia area earlier this morning. More than likely a fiber cut I'd imagine. Apparently it's affecting about 50,000 residential customers and has been down since 5 a.m. Anyone have more info? --- Andy Ringsmuth (402) 304-0083 andyring(a)inebraska.com

ipv6 day quiet period please
by Scott Weeks 07 Jun '11

Based on recent conversations, I hope everyone got their feelings expressed... :-) I would like to ask politely that we stop those conversations (and the other ones we all have fun with (or plonk)) and let the IPv6 day observations/discussions rule the floor when the world's day starts at the international dateline on June 8th. scott

UN Politics Off Topic

I'm by no means a list admin, but I think we all get along a lot better when, as our mom's taught us, we don't discuss sex, politics or our paychecks with strangers. Please stop, everyone.

Internap FCP
by Ryan Pugatch 07 Jun '11

07 Jun '11

Hi, We are currently looking into Internap FCP as we are in the process of redoing our network infrastructure and taking on managing BGP ourselves rather than relying on blended providers. I am interested in hearing about experiences using it. Is the reporting really that good? Does it actually provide value? Or, is there something out there that is better (or should we just continue to plan to manage it ourselves?) Thanks in advance for the info. Ryan

I've got a 4 inch Springfield XD service model in .45ACP, I actually prefer the .40 round. Its a bit better at inducing Hydrostatic shock just because of its velocity:energy ratio.

Re: UN declares Internet access a "human right"

Internet is a big set of tools just bundled in another big one. And just like another tool, we can use it for "good things and bad things". I think this UN declaration must invite us to think over how adecuate or inadecuate is the way that we use the Internet, as so as individuals and so as society. Tools aren't toys -- *Daniel Espejel Pérez *
