What would happen if encryption was used both ways? What sort of ads would show up then?
Or how about fax over voip? Or even a virtual modem to modem connection?
What sort of logic is this?
'Oh, it failed last time, costed us millions, AND hurt our reputation. Let's do it again!!!"
Oh, how history repeats itself.
I'm all for fighting the botnet problem, but is DNS hijacking the way to fight them? Customers of any ISP should be able to feel confident that, when they enter in slashdot.org, they get the IP for Slashdot, and not for a BADBOTBAD channel!
Instead, why don't they invest in a technology that will keep an eye out for spam like activity (e.g. Port 23 monitoring), and advise customers when they feel they have been compromised?

Don't get me wrong: I understand that internet access can greatly assist businesses and individuals, however... Should the people be worrying about No Internet? How about clean water and safe food? What next: Blogging from Africa, titled 'Why I'm so hungry..."?
Forget Snoopware: What about the actual phone's OS? Proprietary systems like Microsoft's could very well call-home to update the location of the cell-phone. There aren't yet mobile firewalls to prevent internet, wap, or WiFi access by rogue programs, or the OS itself.
They send drafts back and forth via email This is a barrage of 20 emails in one direction, then X minutes later, another 20 emails to another address, etc.
I know that, if I saw that kind of activity, I would mark it as suspected spam. Plus: These were test messages. What was the kind of content in the emails? If it was trash, like TESTESTEST, then, DUH! Of course it got blocked.
From the article:
Each day, I would log onto Hotmail-1 and send/receive that day's twenty emails to Hotmail-2 Did he ever consider that the spam filters at Hotmail, or his ISP of choice, considered it suspicious that he sent 20 email, all within a few minutes of each other, all with attachments, all to the same account?

I'm surprised that the Govt hasn't banned this, claiming it to be a terrorist cell training tool. Just a matter of time, I guess...

I mean, it's not a single display: it's a hundred LCDs stitched together.
When they create a 220 million LCD screen, then great.
Damn! My covers been blown!! *Howls at moon*
Just a sign of the times, I guess
Or maybe not. But probably. Not. On the other hand... of course, if you.. no, no, they're dead. I think. -The Thinker

Don't make me laugh.... bitterly.
Ooo! What flavour?
What if you used their own USB charger/Wall Adapter converter? What then?
