How soon before SJW want that "search algorithm to re-rank individual websites" magic for their party political projects?
No negative movie reviews around the time of a new movie release?
Blasphemy?
No news about illegal immigration?
No negative comments about Communist leadership?
Some books and authors have ideas and plots that need to be re-ranked?
Some movies need to be re-ranked?
Most of history needs to be hidden.
Images and movies of political leaders not officially issued by their party?
Comments about a politicians ability to give a long speech in public should not be easy to find?
Once the USA starts to re-rank sites, SJW will have a long list of sites with issues they want not found.
A cell-site simulator, digital analyzer. The IMSI-catcher gets it all.
Once LEO knows of everyone in the area over days, weeks, months it just a GUI map to replay that day, hour, time.
The more wealthy cities, states, federal/state funded police efforts have long term voice prints collections at a city/state level too:) Swapping a phone, buying a new cell phone is no protection from mil grade voice print collection thats now at big city contractor prices.
Just never let a good lawyer find the city/state budget paper work on all that. As in real paperwork, printed out and kept some gov office that the public can still request to look at, photograph in person.
Computer FOIA searches at a federal, state and city will often be very limited as not to show funding, what the upgraded hardware was and its costs.
Understating flights over an area can be good too, LETC (law enforcement technical collection) upgrades to front company registered single engine aircraft that fly into and out of the same airport and just circle a city. 2 miles around is about all a low cost LEO cell site collection could do from a low cost aircraft. That will collect every cell phone, network all but a longer distance to collect from was a problem.
If the federal government pays, its mil grade, pressurized cabin systems that do not have follow the same small aircraft patterns. More power, more collection, very different flight paths.
The other reason its so well hidden is US law enforcement cannot trust telco workers, lawyers, the courts, city, sate, federal workers, ex mil, cult and faith members, dual citizens not to sell/talk about/walk out LEO methods. So US police finally know to keep everything well hidden from everyone around them.
US LEO finally understood why the UK could do so much with more limited funding. The UK gov was smart and never told lawyers, human rights lawyers, the media, telco workers, staff, police, criminals of their advanced mil collection secrets.
Look at the VPN products that can escape the best China and its global contractors could do with the Great Firewall https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
What new things could a US ISP do that China did to do to control all its domestic networks? The best VPN products got around some of the most well funded and intrusive global network tracking by Communists governments.
Given a level playing field a VPN with the best staff will win and offer its users the freedom to enjoy fast networks int he USA every day.
How will a politically well connected ISP stop a VPN that can change to any attempts to detect, slow or block its encrypted products?
Call in the US federal government to track US VPN CC payments? To block CC payments to a VPN service detected been active in the USA?
To report VPN users who attempt to pay for a VPN with a US CC?
What a ISP cant win on a network they will enforce with new federal network use and CC payment regulations?
Federal color of law changes will keep the USA in the slow lane?
Yes US version of Operation Socialist set up by the FBI to hunt all the US mil/gov/contractors/ex/former mil/gov/police people walking out/selling/giving away US secrets.
If they find complex malware never seen before, the FBI has its malware talked about by experts globally. Investigations that needed to stay in place on gov/mil computers stop.
Someone finds very average malware that everyone is talking about in the US media? Its reported as been the same as what has everyone found before. The only slight change is the reporting back to an FBI staging server.
The contractors, mil, gov workers selling US secrets do not change their methods, do not escape, do not ask unexpected questions. They are happy its just "another nations" very average and well understood malware.
The malware is not removed as it under FBI "investigation" and that could take months, many months. Months of domestic key logging going back to the FBI under the cover story of a slow news day and an international spy investigation.
Too many people in the media got told US methods and cyber results. It if was a real GCHQ, CIA, NSA, FBI, MI5 investigation on a real "spy" network nothing would be public for decades. But for some strange reason the US gov is going out of its way to tell everyone about this strange code they can expect to find in every US gov computer and not to worry or do much about it... Just report it and let it stay in place ?
Someone in the US gov is covering for and protecting strange code been discovered all over the US mil/gov and in systems used by trusted contractors.
With all the experience gained by some of the best VPN providers networking in and out of China? How much better could a monopolistic ISP protect its slow network from a good VPN in the USA?
Unless the monopolistic ISP got federal gov protection to be slow? To report/ban/blocked CC payments by VPN users in the US?
Re "They can just throttle everything EXCEPT the things they can identify and have been 'compensated' for."
New VPN networks can look like other trusted and protected networks when detected in the middle of another network in real time.
A telco would have to investigate the origin and destination of every suspected VPN user.
Find the network that responds like a VPN? Slow it.
Thats a lot of interesting requests been pushed around the world from one telco trying to detect a skilled set of changing VPN servers deep in other nations.
The telco has to get that network slowness right every time or they get a bad reputation from their most loyal and profitable private sector accounts.
The private sector builds their own networks once they are slowed a few times by a big telco by "mistake".
A really smart VPN can also use very creative parts of other nations ip ranges found on the open market.
Other nations might not really like a US telco sending network requests up and down their banking sector's networks.
A skilled VPN can hide globally. A US telco has to try and track that VPN origin in the open.
The US has a lot of US mil/navy contractors, ex, former mil workers under some type of investigation at this time.
Both as FBI interviews in the form of two people making "offers" to past US contractors/gov/mil workers and constant key logging of many "secure" computers all over the US gov/mil.
If a person is a US contractor and gets an interview with or is approached by two interesting people, its the FBI with an amazing offer of cash for US mil secrets/information..
The first part of such investigations would be a computer investigation. The US gov is using very average consumer grade malware to investigate almost all of its past and still cleared mil contractors.
Re "The west is not taking Russia and China serious in their work to undermine..."
A "Russia" or "China" has decades and skilled generations of human spies they trust that are in place all over the US/UK mil/gov.
They are in place, trusted, safe and set policy, spending, get to direct billions in funding to junk mil/gov projects.
A Soviet Union, Russia and China had no interest in the www, a network totally tracked by the NSA, GCHQ, 5 eyes, NATO in real time. Why risk the www junk when top ranking human spies walk US policy out the front door as part of their mil/gov jobs for decades?
Other nations have filled the USA and 5 eye nations with human spies as how their own people think is easy to trust. Humans can be tested, trusted. Random secret US plain text computer data on an internet facing network could be a long term CIA trap left out in the wild. Data sets in plain text that have not CIA data but "real" secrets to every other part of the US mil/gov, in the open, in plain text...
Someone is on the USA domestic gov/mil networks collecting data on mil and gov. Its not other nations, its just very skilled, long term US law enforcement network tracking all other US gov/mil staff who are now under investigation.
"Russia" is the easy to use domestic investigative cover to keep US domestic law enforcement keylogers in place. If it was any other nations malware it would never be in the media as that would tell all other nations of US cyber detection methods. The NSA, GCHQ, FBI would be feeding other nations networks junk, be catching spies without telling the US media for many decades.
If the US public is reading about US investigative methods in real time, its a simple domestic US law enforcement cover story.
Its just US law enforcement using tools, staging servers they can keep in place looking at all ex and former gov/mil staff contractors.
A lot of people with US security clearances having been selling, giving US secrets away to other nations "contractors" for cash, holidays, fun, pleasure.
Other's have been helping their faith groups, cults by sharing US methods, secrets. "Dual" citizens more loyal to other nations than the USA.
The FBI is tracking all the contractors with secrets to sell in real time using rather common malware.
Was it really just another nations well understood "malware" that any good AV can now find or was it years of network access by the FBI? ... didn't expect a kind of federal investigation... to use creative methods, have a ready cover story for years in the US press and be all over gov/mil networks to hunt "Russian" malware. The US key loggers stayed in place under a wide spread international cover story for local staff and collected everything.
Re "why wouldn't throttling a VPN be practical?"
A VPN network can alter its origin, ports, ip ranges, encryption again and again.
Is it a paying bank under that code? p2p? A US consumer trying to escape been slowed by their own US telco?
A telco then has to re work its entire network to hunt down and slow encryption that could be paying banks, gov, contractors, p2p, a skilled new consumer VPN network
What can a telco do then to uncover creative and advanced new VPN use?
Send requests to the origin computer? Is that a VPN in the USA or another nation?
Send requests to the destination? Is that what a VPN would respond as too?
Is it a really a bank or a consumer VPN?
How many times can a US telco investigated each and every network connection before global networks start to block such invasive telco investigations down their networks per connection?
When does a US telco investigation of a VPN network start to look like the start of network intrusion by some network in the USA and gets blocked around the world?
Nations that block and hunt down all and any new VPN use are very easy to spot as they have to investigate the entire VPN network globally.
They have every ISP in their nation to spend on tracking and detecting VPN use globally.
It is hard to block a good VPN just from data found in middle of the network. Origin and destination of a VPN network has to be investigated.
That gets risky for an average telco every day for every user on their network.
Mapping out a VPN origin/destination globally is easy. Not been detected in other nations networks hunting a VPN is hard work just for automated US p2p slowing.
Re "Why wouldn't throttling this be practical?"
A big telco buys the best deep packet inspection at the time and that equipment had limitations given the need for speed and what the private sector wanted to pay. Its fast but can only look for a few sets of information.
A file checksum for US law enforcement on every movie, picture, file that has to be found and tracked in real time for US law enforcement.
Any p2p use.
Fast deep packet inspection thats in use only finds network things that are very different or easy to find or not well encrypted.
A picture checksum, file name, the US gov and its need for plain text, p2p use.
Everything that was expected to be a problem or had to be found for US law enforcement when installed all over the USA years ago.
Any new encrypted user network that looks like the everyday network use by every trusted bank?
Time to find a new generation of deep packet inspection and swap out all existing deep packet inspection...
The consumer was expected to just keep using the not or junk encrypted www and p2p as projected.
No powerful setting was offered to detect consumers sending all network up an advanced encrypted network that can be altered if slowed by a telco.
Why the halt on protecting the US from another nation if it was really another nation?
Every day wasted is another day the another skilled nation could copy out all the plain text data... again.
US investigators tried to wait and see with a real extraction effort and allowed a lot of US secrets to walk out in real time while under investigation...
Methods would have changed by now so who is looking after US domestic collection and who wants easy to find malware code to stay in place?
Some US investigation has a nice new hidden tool set that offers a Russian skill set and global staging server if detected by other parts of the US gov/mil/contractors?
The ip range, time of day, code litter is just a cover for deep and long term US investigative skill sets.
Any private sector person or 3rd party in the private sector has a look, it has to be "Russia" with an easy to find, media friendly "Bear"code litter?
"CIA anti-forensics tool that makes Uncle Sam seem fluent in enemy tongues" (31 Mar 2017) https://www.theregister.co.uk/...
Great cover for a long term FBI or other agency investigation.
The question for people finding the code would be is it US parallel construction https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... or a real US court backed investigation?
Who domestically is looking at your systems and has the legal power to keep the code in?
When was the last time an investigation was hidden and results not shared, a domestic US version of Operation Socialist ? https://theintercept.com/2014/...
Has the FBI gone back to its Magic Lantern (software) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... and stayed in long term, deep in domestic computer and telco networks?
Could this be the US version of incorruptible US law enforcement needing hidden tools set well apart form all other US courts, telcos, police, lawyers?
Greek wiretapping case 2004–05 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...–05
The Italian SISMI-Telecom scandal https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
US law enforcement has set up a "Royal Ulster Constabulary Special Branch" that does not have to risk talking or sharing with any other part of US law enforcement and is getting results with mil/CIA grade computer systems?
1+ for more voltage and getting the exact power needed to many more battery packs that are 30 minute charge ready.
The city power side can do is well understood, the truck should just be a lot more well understood battery packs ready to recharge in a set time.
Someone who has not spoken down to and lectured large parts of the USA would be a good start.
A person who can talk and keep talking to most average people in their state and all over the USA.
Not have a political party machine that induces US campaign staff and party workers to walk out with lots of internal party documents and give them to the US media.
Support charming, charismatic, honorable, ethical political leadership.
The Amercian voting public will find out what their political leadership like to do and who they are during the election cycle.
Dont run politicians with decades of complex issues and not expect the voting public to notice.
Find a candidate who can actually give a long speech all over their state or federally.
A political party that can not select good leadership internally and win a local election is not a sign of another skilled nation.
Domestic incompetence and party arrogance is the "result" of that party and its failed politics.
Have a better understanding of the US public and try to actually win an election.
Imagine if some global review system could ensure only good reviews got propagated?
That only the more positive reviews got shown as search results?
Imagine an internet without negative reviews.
The person knows they have to get up, arrive on time and do what they are told. They have shown they can do this for years.
The applicant can study, retain what they have studied and recall new and complex information over time to some set standard.
Some long term, risky and unexpected health problems with the person could have been expected to show within the many years of the education system and its work load.
A persons politics and personality should have developed to a stage that can be tracked. Is the person going to want to bring their political issues and outside campaigning to work?
That background check should show who they befriended, what they studied and what disruptive political theories they could be expected to spread at work.
The professional ethics, standing and quality of a person. Did the person have difficulties not cheating? Always need and demand "extra" considerations?
Was the person advanced on academic merit or given non academic considerations?
Did they complain a lot? Disruptive? Did they report their academics for "politics" a lot? Show signs of long term poverty, having a need to push politics, of a faith, a cult that might see decades of company secrets been sold, liberated or given to another nation, gov, mil, faith group?
What does their social media use show about them? No use of any social media at all? Faith? Politics? Long term contact with friend of friends who are criminals, very political active? Interests that could be an issue in the private sector?
A persons personality, faith, allegiance, secrets might have formed and be discoverable before they enter the work force and walk out with secrets.
A few years of considering how a person acted in a university setting can be an insight into years of work place suitability.
Why risk a difficult person of unknown character, cost and emotions at work when a university setting could have provided some forewarning of a very bad attitude.
Put some time in understanding every aspect of your workers and your company will thrive in any economic conditions.
Re "reclassify ISP's you don't need to worry about the LEC classification barrier and we can have municipal fibre open up to any little business that wants to run their own ISP and can fill the minimum requirements."
Thats the good change. No longer can a large telco claim they are the only network able to support NN. No other network could enter the market was is not totally federally NN compliant.
That color of law federal lobby effort held back a lot of new network innovation around the USA.
Steep compliance costs only an existing telco could afford to cover.
With NN removed any locally supported network in any city, state can be a network again. What can a big telco say? That the competition is not NN ready?
That if a existing large telco does not have a protected monopoly then telco capitalism fails?
With the removal of NN, one more color of law method to keep new products and services out of the US market is removed.
Big telcos should have just kept NN, it could have been shaped into a very powerful legal barrier to entry.
Municipal fibre can find a town full of users and connect them to a long list of new ISP in the area.
They are just probing the US kitchen networks for now. Wait until toasters get "smart" and fully networked.
Imagine what a networked "smart" toaster with a printer like function could be altered to do to fun all American bread products.
Just by changing the amount of heat over both sides of the toast.
What was once a fun image outline on toast could be altered by hackers.
A once cute golden brown image on the toast could get political.
Americans could walk up to political messages crafted on both toasted sides of their toast.
Looking down at their plate and been subjected to a propaganda message on their toast.
Re "'a cat and mouse game of avoiding deep packet inspection."
If a movie was been written about setting up a new method of moving files and parts of files?
Set up a service on a port that looks just like a lot of professional services that has the same encryption as a lot of a nations average commercial networked data.
Deep packet inspection will show its all from low cost consumer ISP accounts. A provider then set out to block that "type" of usage over all its networks:)
All that deep packet inspection would then be conflicted. What to block? Was that a commercial account? What is really a consumer account using a new p2p system?
A valued and long term commercial user going low cost and using a few consumer accounts as part of their encrypted network?
What to block, how to sort the valued customers using encryption from that a new protocol that looks just like much used professional encryption.
Users would have to get some better hardware that can encrypt to keep up with faster networks.
Given a network does not have to meet expensive federal "net neutrality" standards?
A walled community, any community with cash, city, group of people can set up their own modern optical "lines".
No more having to stay on network insulated with paper and protected by lead.
Re "Cities that tried to start their own ISPs were sued and forced to abandon their efforts. There are more than enough dirty tactics employed by the encumbant ISPs to make it incredibly difficult for small ISPs to get off the ground, and eliminating net neutrality will just give the existing ISPs that much more power to crush emerging competition."
Big telcos got so greedy in the short term they just lobbied away their very best gov backed laws to block all emerging competition.
That was the real problem to low cost entry set by big gov regulation. Only a select few established telcos could say they had full "net neutrality" gov compliance and could use that as a way to block new providers.
With one less artificial regulatory barrier removed the US telco market will become more dynamic. New providers can enter a once restricted and over regulated market.
Small ISPs will finally able to get off the ground as they will not have to spend big on proving they are following gov regulation.
Cities can now build a network. Any network to any local standard. A network in the past would have to show support for net neutrality and only a near federally approved monopoly provider could offer that compliance.
Now anyone can build any type of network within a framework of local laws.
What a few existing networks with near monopolies in some regions of the US saw as a law change to offer one less service they had to offer will be the opening to real competition.
A large telco, ISP might enjoy some short term profit in keeping its prices up and removing services.
With the new freedom to not support a services comes the freedom for anyone to now enter the ISP marketplace with more services.
Full support of more networking protocols will set a better quality telco and ISP apart from its low quality competition.
Deregulation will not allow for monopolies.
Consumers have the ability to select and pay for new providers that support any service wanted.
When one provider stops a service, other providers can step up with their own support.
When one service is block, better brands will rush in to sell their product in that opening in a new and very competitive marketplace.
Any provider can offer any set of services it wants. A provider can now enter the US market and sell any services it wants.
If the competition wants to stop a service, other providers can now sell plans that offer that service.
Net neutrality ensured only a few big telcos could offer networking services to all of the USA. With that need to comply with the US gov setting net neutrality, dynamic new services and products can now enter the US telco market.
A much older US intelligence official thinking back to their glory days of the 1970's when they had rank, respect, over time, visited 5 eye nations, a real security clearance?
Day dreaming about the covert skills of the Soviet Union and its huge embassy in the USA again?
The idea that people outside the US elite coast could have voted in person for a real political leader who could give a speech?
A political candidate that actually visited their state and talked to real people in person?
Someone who did not lecture, talk down to entire parts of the USA might charm more people in more states to vote for them?
Political charm can actually win US elections by understanding what people all over the USA want?
A US political party suffering walk outs of their secret internal documents by their own trusted staff?
It just has to be the work of some other super skilled nation.
Someone having the skill to win a US election by giving good speeches all over the USA? To find staff able to understand the role of all the different states in winning a US election? To have people on staff able to win plan how to win US elections.
Speeches and election material had to have been translated and hand delivered from the Soviet embassy...
Nobody in the USA can write a great political speech or would have had the skills to win a US election...
Few in the USA have the math skills needed to keep track of all the states and how they might vote. It had to be a new super computer in the Soviet embassy...
Look at how much power the Soviet embassy used during the election.
They had their own secure Soviet super computer tracking every US voter 24/7. With the perfect political banner ads, faith based emails, animated gif's befuddling the below average US voter.
Management. Costs of security takes away from their pay, shareholder value. Thats less jets, holidays, gambling, yacht time.
The security services want an easy way in they can use the cover of average malware for.
The police want a way in so they have contractors hide as malware.
The security services and police need a way out of a system, network with the data they find.
The method used by police, contractors, security services finds its way into the hands of cult, faith groups, criminals, the media, ex, former police, political groups.
Lots of groups, people have reasons for wanting to get into another network, computer.
With the funds to buy methods, the data moved looks like the action of malware or a protected US police investigation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... . Code litter is left to show its just malware thats been seen before or the work of another nation (Marble Framework).
Big brands have to be ready for existing or future lawful demands by nations, their security services. PRISM ready. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PRISM_(surveillance_program). That open door, trap door, back door lets a lot of other people, groups in once secret Police/mil/security services methods get passed around, sold, rented, given away, shared with people of the same faith.
So what is/was the ANT catalog keeps working https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
The cost of creating a secure system is often in management, lawyers, compliance to US, UK, EU laws.
Some money then has to be found to code the network, service, system, OS. Low cost workers are found, the final gov/mil paperwork is the only part that has to be worked in the USA, UK, EU.
Quality slips, the police/mil/security services back door, trap door, junk encryption, extra keys then get handed around.
Too many people in too many other nations have seen the easy way in.
Another part is corruption enquiries. Police, mil, special forces who are doing a good job need to be able to collect on bad contractors, the judiciary, organised crime, politicians. If the networks are too good its hard work to secure global collection on a nations corrupt officials.
Everyone has a good reason for a trapdoor, backdoor, junk encryption, poor standards, rushed products, police support.
Malware and criminals, faith groups, cults, the media, skills people just follow the networks left wide open.
The mil also likes plain text networks as it made sending raw data globally much more easy. The network was secure from collection to sorting at a secure base.
Plain text stayed as the method to work with and then contractors got to sort data away from a base, secure site.
Gone was the physical site security of the 1960-1980's and contractors now have data in plain text on networks open to the internet.
Plain text is all they are allowed to work with but their own network security is junk or was never set up with any skills.
Plain text also allows the clandestine agencies to search many different US wide networks to find skills and staff with clearances they need.
No need to ask for a key, say why or have searches questioned. No new Iran–Contra https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...–Contra_affair questions later, no looking over crypto use logs.
The removal of union staff on site saw an expansion of networks to cover what staff on site had to look after. More new remote site networks got left wide open.
Nobody wants to pay for their own secure networks to cover a city, state, part of the USA so that new low cost "internet" was used as a very secure network.
Years later that consumer OS, junk network get found by skilled people, groups mapping every network their area.
Obscurity did not work years later with no upgrades.
Watching staff. If networks are too secure how can staff wi

The other reason its so well hidden is US law enforcement cannot trust telco workers, lawyers, the courts, city, sate, federal workers, ex mil, cult and faith members, dual citizens not to sell/talk about/walk out LEO methods.
So US police finally know to keep everything well hidden from everyone around them.
US LEO finally understood why the UK could do so much with more limited funding. The UK gov was smart and never told lawyers, human rights lawyers, the media, telco workers, staff, police, criminals of their advanced mil collection secrets.

Other nations might not really like a US telco sending network requests up and down their banking sector's networks.
A skilled VPN can hide globally. A US telco has to try and track that VPN origin in the open.
The US has a lot of US mil/navy contractors, ex, former mil workers under some type of investigation at this time.
..."
... didn't expect a kind of federal investigation... to use creative methods, have a ready cover story for years in the US press and be all over gov/mil networks to hunt "Russian" malware.
Both as FBI interviews in the form of two people making "offers" to past US contractors/gov/mil workers and constant key logging of many "secure" computers all over the US gov/mil.
If a person is a US contractor and gets an interview with or is approached by two interesting people, its the FBI with an amazing offer of cash for US mil secrets/information..
The first part of such investigations would be a computer investigation. The US gov is using very average consumer grade malware to investigate almost all of its past and still cleared mil contractors.
Re "The west is not taking Russia and China serious in their work to undermine
A "Russia" or "China" has decades and skilled generations of human spies they trust that are in place all over the US/UK mil/gov.
They are in place, trusted, safe and set policy, spending, get to direct billions in funding to junk mil/gov projects.
A Soviet Union, Russia and China had no interest in the www, a network totally tracked by the NSA, GCHQ, 5 eyes, NATO in real time. Why risk the www junk when top ranking human spies walk US policy out the front door as part of their mil/gov jobs for decades?
Other nations have filled the USA and 5 eye nations with human spies as how their own people think is easy to trust. Humans can be tested, trusted. Random secret US plain text computer data on an internet facing network could be a long term CIA trap left out in the wild. Data sets in plain text that have not CIA data but "real" secrets to every other part of the US mil/gov, in the open, in plain text...
Someone is on the USA domestic gov/mil networks collecting data on mil and gov. Its not other nations, its just very skilled, long term US law enforcement network tracking all other US gov/mil staff who are now under investigation.
"Russia" is the easy to use domestic investigative cover to keep US domestic law enforcement keylogers in place. If it was any other nations malware it would never be in the media as that would tell all other nations of US cyber detection methods. The NSA, GCHQ, FBI would be feeding other nations networks junk, be catching spies without telling the US media for many decades.
If the US public is reading about US investigative methods in real time, its a simple domestic US law enforcement cover story.
Its just US law enforcement using tools, staging servers they can keep in place looking at all ex and former gov/mil staff contractors.
A lot of people with US security clearances having been selling, giving US secrets away to other nations "contractors" for cash, holidays, fun, pleasure.
Other's have been helping their faith groups, cults by sharing US methods, secrets. "Dual" citizens more loyal to other nations than the USA.
The FBI is tracking all the contractors with secrets to sell in real time using rather common malware.
Was it really just another nations well understood "malware" that any good AV can now find or was it years of network access by the FBI?
The US key loggers stayed in place under a wide spread international cover story for local staff and collected everything.
Re "why wouldn't throttling a VPN be practical?"
A VPN network can alter its origin, ports, ip ranges, encryption again and again.
Is it a paying bank under that code? p2p? A US consumer trying to escape been slowed by their own US telco?
A telco then has to re work its entire network to hunt down and slow encryption that could be paying banks, gov, contractors, p2p, a skilled new consumer VPN network
What can a telco do then to uncover creative and advanced new VPN use?
Send requests to the origin computer? Is that a VPN in the USA or another nation?
Send requests to the destination? Is that what a VPN would respond as too?
Is it a really a bank or a consumer VPN?
How many times can a US telco investigated each and every network connection before global networks start to block such invasive telco investigations down their networks per connection?
When does a US telco investigation of a VPN network start to look like the start of network intrusion by some network in the USA and gets blocked around the world?
Nations that block and hunt down all and any new VPN use are very easy to spot as they have to investigate the entire VPN network globally.
They have every ISP in their nation to spend on tracking and detecting VPN use globally.
It is hard to block a good VPN just from data found in middle of the network. Origin and destination of a VPN network has to be investigated.
That gets risky for an average telco every day for every user on their network.
Mapping out a VPN origin/destination globally is easy. Not been detected in other nations networks hunting a VPN is hard work just for automated US p2p slowing.
Re "Why wouldn't throttling this be practical?"
A big telco buys the best deep packet inspection at the time and that equipment had limitations given the need for speed and what the private sector wanted to pay. Its fast but can only look for a few sets of information.
A file checksum for US law enforcement on every movie, picture, file that has to be found and tracked in real time for US law enforcement.
Any p2p use.
Fast deep packet inspection thats in use only finds network things that are very different or easy to find or not well encrypted.
A picture checksum, file name, the US gov and its need for plain text, p2p use.
Everything that was expected to be a problem or had to be found for US law enforcement when installed all over the USA years ago.
Any new encrypted user network that looks like the everyday network use by every trusted bank?
Time to find a new generation of deep packet inspection and swap out all existing deep packet inspection...
The consumer was expected to just keep using the not or junk encrypted www and p2p as projected.
No powerful setting was offered to detect consumers sending all network up an advanced encrypted network that can be altered if slowed by a telco.
Why the halt on protecting the US from another nation if it was really another nation?
Every day wasted is another day the another skilled nation could copy out all the plain text data... again.
US investigators tried to wait and see with a real extraction effort and allowed a lot of US secrets to walk out in real time while under investigation...
Methods would have changed by now so who is looking after US domestic collection and who wants easy to find malware code to stay in place?
Some US investigation has a nice new hidden tool set that offers a Russian skill set and global staging server if detected by other parts of the US gov/mil/contractors?
The ip range, time of day, code litter is just a cover for deep and long term US investigative skill sets.
Any private sector person or 3rd party in the private sector has a look, it has to be "Russia" with an easy to find, media friendly "Bear"code litter?
"CIA anti-forensics tool that makes Uncle Sam seem fluent in enemy tongues" (31 Mar 2017)
https://www.theregister.co.uk/...
Great cover for a long term FBI or other agency investigation.
The question for people finding the code would be is it US parallel construction https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... or a real US court backed investigation?
Who domestically is looking at your systems and has the legal power to keep the code in?
When was the last time an investigation was hidden and results not shared, a domestic US version of Operation Socialist ?
https://theintercept.com/2014/...
Has the FBI gone back to its Magic Lantern (software) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... and stayed in long term, deep in domestic computer and telco networks?
Could this be the US version of incorruptible US law enforcement needing hidden tools set well apart form all other US courts, telcos, police, lawyers?
Greek wiretapping case 2004–05 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...–05
The Italian SISMI-Telecom scandal https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
US law enforcement has set up a "Royal Ulster Constabulary Special Branch" that does not have to risk talking or sharing with any other part of US law enforcement and is getting results with mil/CIA grade computer systems?
1+ for more voltage and getting the exact power needed to many more battery packs that are 30 minute charge ready.
The city power side can do is well understood, the truck should just be a lot more well understood battery packs ready to recharge in a set time.
Someone who has not spoken down to and lectured large parts of the USA would be a good start.
A person who can talk and keep talking to most average people in their state and all over the USA.
Not have a political party machine that induces US campaign staff and party workers to walk out with lots of internal party documents and give them to the US media.
Support charming, charismatic, honorable, ethical political leadership.
The Amercian voting public will find out what their political leadership like to do and who they are during the election cycle.
Dont run politicians with decades of complex issues and not expect the voting public to notice.
Find a candidate who can actually give a long speech all over their state or federally.
A political party that can not select good leadership internally and win a local election is not a sign of another skilled nation.
Domestic incompetence and party arrogance is the "result" of that party and its failed politics.
Have a better understanding of the US public and try to actually win an election.
Imagine if some global review system could ensure only good reviews got propagated?
That only the more positive reviews got shown as search results?
Imagine an internet without negative reviews.
The person knows they have to get up, arrive on time and do what they are told. They have shown they can do this for years.
The applicant can study, retain what they have studied and recall new and complex information over time to some set standard.
Some long term, risky and unexpected health problems with the person could have been expected to show within the many years of the education system and its work load.
A persons politics and personality should have developed to a stage that can be tracked. Is the person going to want to bring their political issues and outside campaigning to work?
That background check should show who they befriended, what they studied and what disruptive political theories they could be expected to spread at work.
The professional ethics, standing and quality of a person. Did the person have difficulties not cheating? Always need and demand "extra" considerations?
Was the person advanced on academic merit or given non academic considerations?
Did they complain a lot? Disruptive? Did they report their academics for "politics" a lot? Show signs of long term poverty, having a need to push politics, of a faith, a cult that might see decades of company secrets been sold, liberated or given to another nation, gov, mil, faith group?
What does their social media use show about them? No use of any social media at all? Faith? Politics? Long term contact with friend of friends who are criminals, very political active? Interests that could be an issue in the private sector?
A persons personality, faith, allegiance, secrets might have formed and be discoverable before they enter the work force and walk out with secrets.
A few years of considering how a person acted in a university setting can be an insight into years of work place suitability.
Why risk a difficult person of unknown character, cost and emotions at work when a university setting could have provided some forewarning of a very bad attitude.
Put some time in understanding every aspect of your workers and your company will thrive in any economic conditions.
Re "reclassify ISP's you don't need to worry about the LEC classification barrier and we can have municipal fibre open up to any little business that wants to run their own ISP and can fill the minimum requirements."
Thats the good change. No longer can a large telco claim they are the only network able to support NN. No other network could enter the market was is not totally federally NN compliant.
That color of law federal lobby effort held back a lot of new network innovation around the USA.
Steep compliance costs only an existing telco could afford to cover.
With NN removed any locally supported network in any city, state can be a network again. What can a big telco say? That the competition is not NN ready?
That if a existing large telco does not have a protected monopoly then telco capitalism fails?
With the removal of NN, one more color of law method to keep new products and services out of the US market is removed.
Big telcos should have just kept NN, it could have been shaped into a very powerful legal barrier to entry.
Municipal fibre can find a town full of users and connect them to a long list of new ISP in the area.
They are just probing the US kitchen networks for now. Wait until toasters get "smart" and fully networked.
Imagine what a networked "smart" toaster with a printer like function could be altered to do to fun all American bread products.
Just by changing the amount of heat over both sides of the toast.
What was once a fun image outline on toast could be altered by hackers.
A once cute golden brown image on the toast could get political.
Americans could walk up to political messages crafted on both toasted sides of their toast.
Looking down at their plate and been subjected to a propaganda message on their toast.
Time of day? Exact 9 am to 5 pm gov working hours in some official time zone?
Code litter that misdirects with the "expected" currency symbols?
Re "'a cat and mouse game of avoiding deep packet inspection." :)
If a movie was been written about setting up a new method of moving files and parts of files?
Set up a service on a port that looks just like a lot of professional services that has the same encryption as a lot of a nations average commercial networked data.
Deep packet inspection will show its all from low cost consumer ISP accounts. A provider then set out to block that "type" of usage over all its networks
All that deep packet inspection would then be conflicted. What to block? Was that a commercial account? What is really a consumer account using a new p2p system?
A valued and long term commercial user going low cost and using a few consumer accounts as part of their encrypted network?
What to block, how to sort the valued customers using encryption from that a new protocol that looks just like much used professional encryption.
Users would have to get some better hardware that can encrypt to keep up with faster networks.
Given a network does not have to meet expensive federal "net neutrality" standards?
A walled community, any community with cash, city, group of people can set up their own modern optical "lines".
No more having to stay on network insulated with paper and protected by lead.
Re "Cities that tried to start their own ISPs were sued and forced to abandon their efforts. There are more than enough dirty tactics employed by the encumbant ISPs to make it incredibly difficult for small ISPs to get off the ground, and eliminating net neutrality will just give the existing ISPs that much more power to crush emerging competition."
Big telcos got so greedy in the short term they just lobbied away their very best gov backed laws to block all emerging competition.
That was the real problem to low cost entry set by big gov regulation. Only a select few established telcos could say they had full "net neutrality" gov compliance and could use that as a way to block new providers.
With one less artificial regulatory barrier removed the US telco market will become more dynamic. New providers can enter a once restricted and over regulated market.
Small ISPs will finally able to get off the ground as they will not have to spend big on proving they are following gov regulation.
Cities can now build a network. Any network to any local standard. A network in the past would have to show support for net neutrality and only a near federally approved monopoly provider could offer that compliance.
Now anyone can build any type of network within a framework of local laws.
What a few existing networks with near monopolies in some regions of the US saw as a law change to offer one less service they had to offer will be the opening to real competition.
A large telco, ISP might enjoy some short term profit in keeping its prices up and removing services.
With the new freedom to not support a services comes the freedom for anyone to now enter the ISP marketplace with more services.
Full support of more networking protocols will set a better quality telco and ISP apart from its low quality competition.
Deregulation will not allow for monopolies.
Consumers have the ability to select and pay for new providers that support any service wanted.
When one provider stops a service, other providers can step up with their own support.
When one service is block, better brands will rush in to sell their product in that opening in a new and very competitive marketplace.
Any provider can offer any set of services it wants. A provider can now enter the US market and sell any services it wants.
If the competition wants to stop a service, other providers can now sell plans that offer that service.
Net neutrality ensured only a few big telcos could offer networking services to all of the USA. With that need to comply with the US gov setting net neutrality, dynamic new services and products can now enter the US telco market.
A much older US intelligence official thinking back to their glory days of the 1970's when they had rank, respect, over time, visited 5 eye nations, a real security clearance?
Day dreaming about the covert skills of the Soviet Union and its huge embassy in the USA again?
The idea that people outside the US elite coast could have voted in person for a real political leader who could give a speech?
A political candidate that actually visited their state and talked to real people in person?
Someone who did not lecture, talk down to entire parts of the USA might charm more people in more states to vote for them?
Political charm can actually win US elections by understanding what people all over the USA want?
A US political party suffering walk outs of their secret internal documents by their own trusted staff?
It just has to be the work of some other super skilled nation.
Someone having the skill to win a US election by giving good speeches all over the USA? To find staff able to understand the role of all the different states in winning a US election? To have people on staff able to win plan how to win US elections.
Speeches and election material had to have been translated and hand delivered from the Soviet embassy...
Nobody in the USA can write a great political speech or would have had the skills to win a US election...
Few in the USA have the math skills needed to keep track of all the states and how they might vote. It had to be a new super computer in the Soviet embassy...
Look at how much power the Soviet embassy used during the election. They had their own secure Soviet super computer tracking every US voter 24/7. With the perfect political banner ads, faith based emails, animated gif's befuddling the below average US voter.
Management. Costs of security takes away from their pay, shareholder value. Thats less jets, holidays, gambling, yacht time.
The security services want an easy way in they can use the cover of average malware for.
The police want a way in so they have contractors hide as malware.
The security services and police need a way out of a system, network with the data they find.
The method used by police, contractors, security services finds its way into the hands of cult, faith groups, criminals, the media, ex, former police, political groups.
Lots of groups, people have reasons for wanting to get into another network, computer.
With the funds to buy methods, the data moved looks like the action of malware or a protected US police investigation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... . Code litter is left to show its just malware thats been seen before or the work of another nation (Marble Framework).
Big brands have to be ready for existing or future lawful demands by nations, their security services. PRISM ready.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PRISM_(surveillance_program). That open door, trap door, back door lets a lot of other people, groups in once secret Police/mil/security services methods get passed around, sold, rented, given away, shared with people of the same faith.
So what is/was the ANT catalog keeps working https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
The cost of creating a secure system is often in management, lawyers, compliance to US, UK, EU laws.
Some money then has to be found to code the network, service, system, OS. Low cost workers are found, the final gov/mil paperwork is the only part that has to be worked in the USA, UK, EU.
Quality slips, the police/mil/security services back door, trap door, junk encryption, extra keys then get handed around.
Too many people in too many other nations have seen the easy way in.
Another part is corruption enquiries. Police, mil, special forces who are doing a good job need to be able to collect on bad contractors, the judiciary, organised crime, politicians. If the networks are too good its hard work to secure global collection on a nations corrupt officials.
Everyone has a good reason for a trapdoor, backdoor, junk encryption, poor standards, rushed products, police support.
Malware and criminals, faith groups, cults, the media, skills people just follow the networks left wide open.
The mil also likes plain text networks as it made sending raw data globally much more easy. The network was secure from collection to sorting at a secure base.
Plain text stayed as the method to work with and then contractors got to sort data away from a base, secure site.
Gone was the physical site security of the 1960-1980's and contractors now have data in plain text on networks open to the internet.
Plain text is all they are allowed to work with but their own network security is junk or was never set up with any skills.
Plain text also allows the clandestine agencies to search many different US wide networks to find skills and staff with clearances they need.
No need to ask for a key, say why or have searches questioned. No new Iran–Contra https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...–Contra_affair questions later, no looking over crypto use logs.
The removal of union staff on site saw an expansion of networks to cover what staff on site had to look after. More new remote site networks got left wide open.
Nobody wants to pay for their own secure networks to cover a city, state, part of the USA so that new low cost "internet" was used as a very secure network.
Years later that consumer OS, junk network get found by skilled people, groups mapping every network their area.
Obscurity did not work years later with no upgrades.
Watching staff. If networks are too secure how can staff wi
