Re: [MAPS #33478] Re: Whats goin on?
That's a pretty valid point Roberto.. That is why I learned how to use/build
radio! I see more and more of this repression & censorship everyday. I
shudder to think what it is like for our debian brothers and sisters in
nations where you can't legally even surf the internet for NEWS! It will get
worse too. Here we have AOL. Big brother IS watching you, and hearing you,
and keeping tabs on your non-encrypted email!
Fact is, the good ole net ain't what it was. RMS is a great example of what
happened here in the USA - over night; it became a crime to share code!
dynamic ip's were/are a pain to live with, but in the radio world, we have
met the challenge and I think that is what you need to see it as - a
challenge.
Now the challenge will soon be that we run ftp servers on our boxes, but that
may likely violate your ISP's rules of use. Same if you have apache running!
Or ANY other service. It's just gonna get worse.
Good luck to you.
