That's just a silly statement, it's a text processor/parser. It's another layer. Of course its going to have an effect. On the average person, I would venture to guess its overwhelmingly negligible, but it could very well bottleneck someone like Yahoo.
you don't really understand how it works... see the marcus Thomas fbi - presentation on carnivore at nanog-20 http://videolab.uoregon.edu/events/nanog/nanog_20.html carnivore is a passive not an active data-collector. traffic is replicated to it rather than passed through it... joelja

As of yesterday, the performance of Yahoogroup's has degraded from a couple minutes, to a couple of hours between posting and distribution. It is rumored that this is due to Carnivore being installed at major ISPs throughout the country.
Any insights?
