Might as well do TCP 20, 21 and 23, too. Woah, that slope's getting slippery!
Oh, no, this one again.

Could someone put that onto a t-shirt ?
If it becomes normal for home users to only have 80 and 443, then how can I innovate and design something that needs a new protocol ? What happens to the new voice and video services for example ?
The DOD has already been faced with this (I know of some AFB that have instituted this policy). The solution, of course, is to hire consultants (SIBR if possible) to port everything to port 80 ! You can't say they don't have a plan. Regards Marshall

vpns fix this...
They stop fixing stuff when they stop working. If you start running vpn services on tcp/80 (yuck, yuck, yuck), and naturally because it's the only port open lots of other non http protocol stuff does too, will filter-happy domestic providers start proxying the web instead of just filtering the rest of the traffic ..?
