how? Do you investigate each blocked packet as separate alert?

Yes, all packets get logged (metadata only). Otherwise we wouldn’t know there is an issue.

Those packets consume bandwidth and device utilization, too but this is flat fee, whereas log traffic is measured per GB so we investigated where an unexpected growth came from.


only one country pays but all benefit from it. It should be funded by all who benefit like UN.


I thought most people in the US wanted the UN to have less control over this stuff? Remember the talk about moving control of the Internet to the ITU (International Telecommunication Union)?


The EU, the EU and all bodies that remove a nations sovereignty should be removed entirely. Brexit was good, but the UK government made it meaningless. The UN chokes and strongholds it member states.

The CVE program is already a public-private partnership, which is BAD. CVE's board has people from Microsoft, Github, CrowdStrike, etc. Public-private partnerships are how the US government gets away with things a State should not be able to do: via private contractors. The US government has also run programs like Vault 7. The NSA has a vested interest in vulnerabilities not being made public until the US can fully exploit them Internationally.

The merger of state and corporate interests seems to be everyone's favorite overused word of the decade.


I'm sure that a hundred other countries will step up to fund it. But have you given any thought about why the US was so willing to sponsor it alone in the past?


so "all" should pay, not only US taxpayers.


That would be an improvement. Perhaps the UN should fund it.


cost != value and value != price. and consider alternative cost - highly trained workforce making shoes is a waste of resources.


good selection of conscripts


You are one of the best in history prepared to do your job, with current knowledge etc. and best university in the world, get your colleagues and start a company. You don't need a jerk who barely passed a college to tell you what to do.


USSR explained in one sentence ;)


I know someone who signed agreeement about delivering an app and then providing fixes for free. He escaped the country. Market is not stupid, market learned nothing is free.


Why leave the country?


different jurisdiction


To avoid a litigation? Genuine curious what could happen.


yeah but what is value? Why someone should be worried about 20$ if he for example can't sleep and it's most important thing to him.


there are 7 billion people who want to live in free tiny private flat in San Francisco and US in general. More lanes - more traffic - more traffic jams.


I wouldn't live in SF is someone paid me... and not because of the homeless


Nah, count me out of that 7 billion.

Heck, Id2be surprised if we got even a plurality of Americans who said they'd want to live in San Francisco.
