Re: The US government has betrayed the Internet. We need to take it back

I'm sorry if you don't share my view. Personally I think the Patriot Act is unconsitutional and CALEA is a tool to enable the total invasion of privacy. I think the laws need changed, I want to change. That said I will not break them and neither will you. How would/does your company respond to

Internet Surveillance and Boomerang Routing: A Call for Canadian Network Sovereignty

A Canadian ISP colleague of mine suggested that the NANOG constituency might be interested in this, given some recent 'revelations', so I forward it here for you perusal. "Preliminary analysis of more than 25,000 traceroutes reveals a phenomenon we call ‘boomerang routing’ whereby Canadian-

Re: Internet Surveillance and Boomerang Routing: A Call for Canadian Network Sovereignty

Not just a Canadian issue but one we should look at in the US as well. Deploying more IXs and routing our traffic direct instead of through the "big guys" can secure our own communications from our own government until we change who we have in office. Aaron On 9/7/2013 4:08 PM, Paul Ferguson

Paul, I agree this is a problem, but its been a problem since at least 1994 ( my first exposure ) and I suspect longer, the issue is east we capacity in Canada is very $$, pushing traffic from Toronto east to points south to get it to Vancouver is much more cost effective. -jim On Sat, Sep 7

Re: Internet Surveillance and Boomerang Routing: A Call for Canadian Network Sovereignty

It's a good point to consider however that omits the probabilty that Canada is doing exactly the same thing as the U.S. and thus this may free you from certain legalities but does not actually ensure privacy. The other fact of this is that we are well aware that the NSA's database is being accessed
