3) If someone wget's my web server downloading several hundred megs and I decide then to send a single ping back, and do a single DNS lookup, is that wrong? Sure is, they have not authorized you to send such traffic. I've been downloading data from your web page, there is no reason for you to send ICMP traffic my way (one ICMP packet is one end of the extreme).
ICMP host/net/port unreachable, anybody? How about TCP ECN packets?
