These days, a lot of smallish ISP's are blocking CNNIC and/or KRNIC space wholesale. As for CN, the truth of the matter is, the Golden Shield is a very internally oriented (not just xenophobic) filter. CN cares a whole bunch what the rest of the world does to its people. CN doesn't care nearly at all what its people do to the rest of the world. Quite the double standard. The social problem will not be fixed in the foreseeable future, so we have to settle for an imperfect technical solution -- for now. For some operations, the spew level is so high that blanket blocking CNNIC is the only reasonably maintainable option. -- -- Todd Vierling <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
