Needless to say, the system is still operational even now, and they don't have any problems at all managing their software rollouts on Debian. It woul(d) not surprise me at all if the Israeli Governemt tried to adopt another similar, final solution.

Hopefully there would be some sort of minimum service level, maybe 64kbps; presumably people dropping tens of thousands expect at least a modicum of return on their investment. People who didn't want to install the client could trudge along at those speeds.
Eventually there would be a market system, whereby people would trade their completed blocks for other commodities, like food vouchers, prints, copies, cash, and sexual favours.
