Re:Is an "Internet Kill Switch" Technically Feasible in the ... by quellhorst on Wednesday February 09, 2011 @05:39PM (#2199682)
If the kill switch is built into routers, expect that to be used by hackers. You'll have to use open source router code like dd-wrt to avoid it.

This is a bad idea and is trying to change how the Internet works. The Internet was designed to stay on even if there was a nuke attack. ISPs have been handeling DOS attacks for years successfully without a kill switch.
