This does not match the rhetoric.
This is not true at present; most ISPs don't implement egress filtering let alone traffic flow analysis. It is available but expensive; a report prepared for the French government which I will try to extract from nextgens seems to indicate that it's not possible globally, or that it's prohibitively expensive globally. Personally I think it's more likely that they'd NAT everyone. > > =jr -- Matthew J Toseland - toad at amphibian.dyndns.org Freenet Project Official Codemonkey - http://freenetproject.org/ ICTHUS - Nothing is impossible.
