Well, if you weren't so heavy handed about cutting people off from chunks of the net then you wouldn't be setting yourself up for suspicion. Consider this from my point of view: - I read on /. about above.net blocking macromedia.com, but supposedly unblocking them - I can't access nvidia.com, do a traceroute and there's above.net - I remember the story, check macromedia.com and bingo - above.net and no access - I come come and check from here, and minus above.net I can get to macromedia - I check nvidia from home, and same as Eric: 4 1.ATM1-0.BDL-0.WINSTAR.NET (209.141.211.29) 159.533 ms 169.546 ms 139.776 ms 5 14.winstar.net (63.141.227.14) 159.470 ms 149.594 ms 149.793 ms 6 sl-gw18-nyc-7-2.sprintlink.net (144.232.235.193) 149.495 ms 169.645 ms 149.699 ms 7 sl-bb21-nyc-4-0.sprintlink.net (144.232.13.162) 149.560 ms 169.531 ms 149.692 ms 8 sl-gw9-nyc-9-0.sprintlink.net (144.232.7.98) 159.512 ms 169.566 ms 149.742 ms 9 sl-abovenet-12-0-155M.sprintlink.net (144.232.173.22) 149.543 ms 169.565 ms 149.733 ms 10 core2-core3-oc48.lga1.above.net (208.184.233.217) 149.552 ms 150.634 ms 148.605 ms 11 iad1-lga1-oc192.iad1.above.net (208.184.233.65) 159.484 ms 149.579 ms 149.738 ms 12 core1-core5-oc48.iad1.above.net (208.185.0.145) 160.684 ms 169.557 ms 169.771 ms 13 sjc2-iad1-oc48.sjc2.above.net (216.200.127.26) 220.104 ms 228.836 ms 239.724 ms 14 core5-sjc2-oc48-2.sjc1.above.net (208.184.102.205) 239.550 ms 229.527 ms 240.410 ms 15 main1-core5-oc12.sjc1.above.net (208.185.175.250) 238.888 ms 229.529 ms 239.743 ms 16 209.249.170.20.nvidia.com (209.249.170.20) 249.612 ms 228.921 ms 239.750 ms 17 10.0.0.2 (10.0.0.2) 239.545 ms 229.588 ms 229.720 ms 18 * * * 19 * * * Guess who's the prime suspect?
