And of course you then have to decide whether to modify the merged network to conform to the centralized location story. A little clarification is, I believe, needed to cover all the bases. > > > s5.2: The problem here is not specifically geo-location - and since > we normally don't have any mapping between topology and location this > seems inappropriate - but doing host identification (which is what RFC > 6967 is about.

Maybe I'd prefer my operator not to know which door - with wi-fi involved there is no guarantee which door the host is behind in any case. It's an interesting point that I had not thought about: Does my ISP in the UK actually get to know whether the phone number I am paying for service on is at the same address as on the bills? Since I provide my own modem and the ISP has, to the best of my knowledge, never been near either my house or the exchange where my ADSL line terminates it depends on whether BT checks the linkage and tells the ISP it is right. It's so long since I signed up I have no idea what would have happened if the addresses didn't match.
