Hmm, has anyone at all kept count of the number of times such a discussion has started up in just the last year...
Not on an ongoing basis, but I was curious as well, so a quick mailbox search for 2015: http://mailman.nanog.org/pipermail/nanog/2015-January/072841.html subject: Facebook outage? author: Colin Johnston <colinj@gt86car.org.uk> http://mailman.nanog.org/pipermail/nanog/2015-February/073556.html subject: AOL Postmaster author: Colin Johnston <colinj@gt86car.org.uk> http://mailman.nanog.org/pipermail/nanog/2015-March/074251.html http://mailman.nanog.org/pipermail/nanog/2015-March/074241.html subject: Getting hit hard by CHINANET author: Colin Johnston <colinj@gt86car.org.uk> http://mailman.nanog.org/pipermail/nanog/2015-April/074432.html subject: BGP offloading (fixing legacy router BGP scalability issues) author: Colin Johnston <colinj@gt86car.org.uk> http://mailman.nanog.org/pipermail/nanog/2015-July/077790.html subject: 20-30Gbps UDP 1720 traffic appearing to originate from CN in last 24 hours author: Colin Johnston <colinj@gt86car.org.uk> http://mailman.nanog.org/pipermail/nanog/2015-December/083104.html subject: de-peering for security sake author: Colin Johnston <colinj@gt86car.org.uk> I tried to be pretty wide in the search and filter through a decent chunk of false positives manually, though of course I could have missed some. It does skip a few of the "all of their traffic is crap and abuse reports are ignored" messages that don't *explicitly* call for wholesale country-level blocks or de-peering.
...and how many more times in the past 16 or so years?
I was curious, but not masochistic ;) -- Hugo hugo@slabnet.com: email, xmpp/jabber PGP fingerprint (B178313E): CF18 15FA 9FE4 0CD1 2319 1D77 9AB1 0FFD B178 313E (also on textsecure & redphone)
Mind you, back in say 2004, this discussion would have run to 50 or 60 emails at a bare minimum, in no time at all.

While you thing you are making a snarky response, it would be handy for end users to be able to turn on and off access to other countries retail.
