TCP/IP Header Bit Added to Improve Security

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the won't-somebody-please-think-of-the-routers dept.

J0e 1337 wrote in to tell us about a recent development in the TCP/IP header RFC. He says "According to the just-released RFC, conveniently labeled number 3514 for easy rememberance, a new bit will be added to enhance security. This new evil bit will make it possible to route based on the evil status of any given packet. It's about TIme!!" You might want to read A Related Slashdot Story in order to more fully understand the scope of this exciting new RFC.

    I'm not laughing.

    You have paid for a total of 2000 pages and so far 1974 have been used up (3 today).

    I want ALL pages returned to me for today. There is absolutely no reason I should have to pay to support utter garbage.

    I have been fucking annoyed w/the april fools shit for years. This year it has gotten just downright stupid.

    Taco, I am not kidding. Give me back the fucking page loads or you won't be getting money from me again.
