  1. Re:Are you helping? on Tarpits for Microsoft Worms · · Score: 1

    This is also what I've experienced when Code Red came out. I searched out the people from the different IP address blocks (ARIN, RIPE ...) only to get very cold emails back.

    Launching a counter strike with a script to clean these systems, can only backfire. Therefore I believe that the Tarpit will help out. 'Their systems' are initiating the connections, and I just hold them tight and don't let go. It will slowdown the offending host. It might be a small piece in the global scheme of things, but it's easy to implement and the idea of the tarpit is so hilarious to me ;-)

  2. 3G requires too many aerials to be a valid option. on 2.5G Services Start Trial Run In Seattle · · Score: 1

    I also think 3G will have a really hardtime. To get the full benefits of 3G, the aerials need to be setup very closely one to the next (about 300m for the best bandwidth/network coverage). The quantity of aerials is just going to explode and in most towns this is becoming too much for the citizens.
