Hello.
I'm a regular internet user.
I don't think fast flux technology should be banned, or any other technology
for that matter.
Balance: I do think things need a fair balance between privacy, freedom, etc at
one end and public safety and regulation at the other. Striking this fair
balance may prove difficult.
Root cause: Please do consider the root cause(s) of the problem you are trying
to fix. Un-patched computers connected to the internet. Criminal behavior.
These are two of the main causes, as I understand, however one remains
un-changeable, there will always be criminals.
Solutions: Well there may be many. I'm sure you will look at banning the ip of
infected pc's, or following a similar path to what the RIAA has apparently
chosen and put some of the responsibility of internet control back to the ISP
level. A second solution may be along the lines of some countries gun control
by having a time delay between registrations and activation, however in the
case of the fast evolving internet this time delay could be reduced by
registering in person and providing photo ID and biometric data. A different
solution may include forced updates where the end user is not asked (but is
notified) and a security patch is applied, details would need to be included in
the software licensing clause of course.
I don't think any technology should be banned. It should be cared for,
nurtured, carefully regulated, allowed to grow and develop.
Thanks for reading. I hope you are having a great day.
Cheers,
Ed.
