  1. 🚀 Ah, the noble quest to secure the Internet's mailman! 🌍 #BGP is still as safe as letting toddlers handle your bank transactions. But fear not, because #ISPs will definitely implement #RPKI and save the day...right after they solve world peace and cure aging. 😂

  6. @Slash909uk @phlash Oh! I had forgotten I had these online. These are from when we built Genie Internet for Cellnet - Originally on the Telex floor (where Wireplay was), and then we had to move it up to the 5th or 6th onto my office floor, where the corporate networks hung out. This was the install record, sadly taken on a 1999 digital camera, sorry! I had a skim, there's nothing in there that would be considered classified these days.

    The Celnet Genie service, which we designed as an "ISP in a box", was pretty amazing, really, especially for an essentially free ISP.

    Also, it's one of those odd jobs where you end up as both lead applications architect, systems manager, server builder, removal dude, and underfloor cable rat and crimper in the same project. I feel jobs like that in big corporations tend not to exist any more.

  11. Haven't posted much recently because fairly busy with end of #AdultESOL term (papers to grade!), the new / next #CyberSecurity class (network security, so deals with actual #tech, not bureaucracy).

    Also, we switched #ISPs when we had a new option that was cheaper and about 200x faster. I think we are finally close to speeds we had in #Japan 20 years ago.

    ISP #Router interface not great; they want you to use a phone app. Both have fewer features and worse gui than the 10yo one we replaced.

  17. Por que não juntar com uma estratégia de facilitação de compras públicas que envolvesse provedores locais e instituições federais? Datacenter, colocation, VPS,...

    "A linha de incentivo criada pelo Comitê Gestor do Fust e que tem o banco de desenvolvimento como agente, prevê o uso de até 20% dos recursos do fundo de universalização em projetos de data centers. Segundo Carlos Azen, chefe do departamento das indústrias de TI, telecom e economia criativa do banco, a ideia é que estes recursos façam parte da estratégia de dados dos ISPs.

    "Nós queremos que as operadoras possam aplicar recursos nos investimentos de edge data centers, por exemplo, para dar suporte a serviços digitais". Azen participou do Evento NEO, 2025, que acontece esta semana em Salvador"

  19. ISPs created so many #fees that #FCC will kill requirement to list them all

    Federal Communications Commission Chairman #BrendanCarr says #internet service providers shouldn't have to list every #fee they charge. Responding to a request from #cable and #telecom #lobby groups, he is proposing to eliminate a rule that requires #ISPs to #itemize various fees in #broadband price labels that must be made available to consumers.
