The ideal fix is getting rid of junk by making it unattractive to sell cheapo gadgets without long-term support. Ways out would be: - requiring all long-lived embedded things open source by law (although the FCC seems to go opposite ways, not that it matters much) - making sure companies selling embedded networked software sponsor foundations and offer proper documentation such that such embedded devices will be maintained for 15+ years "15+ years" sounds ridiculous? My garbage "internet access device" (phone & internet via DSL) that my phone/internet provider forces on me (because they need not provide me with the VoIP password in Germany, they can just embed it) is already 9+ years old. We've been discussing this for a decade and things aren't really moving forward. _______________________________________________ Dnsmasq-discuss mailing list Dnsmasq-discuss@lists.thekelleys.org.uk http://lists.thekelleys.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/dnsmasq-discuss
