Re:Large European routing leak sends traffic through China Telecom

>Today’s incident shows that the Internet has not yet eradicated the problem of BGP route leaks. It also reveals that China Telecom, a major International carrier, has still implemented neither the basic routing safeguards necessary both to prevent the propagation of routing leaks nor the processes and procedures necessary to detect and remediate them in a timely manner when they inevitably occur.
What incentives do they have not to route data from foreign adversaries through their networks? :')

Textual is good. It costs money but it's GPL'd so you can build it yourself for free in a matter of minutes, there are plenty of tutorials online.

Sad times we live in that you have to say it twice that you don't oppose feminism, otherwise you know your comment will get flagged, which means your opinion will simply be hidden away. That is the state of the debate, if we can even call it a debate.

It's in the interest of those who control the present narrative.

>How about applying for a license before launching a website?
You don't have that, but in Germany and Austria you must include your full name and address in any website you publish, which creates sort of the same effect.

It's the opposite thing because there usually are a thousand users for every developer, so you're restricting the freedoms of 1000 people to defend the freedom of 1 person. While there's 1 government official whose freedoms are restricted for every 1000 people (made up numbers but you get the point)
