Guest guest Posted April 6, 2005 Report Share Posted April 6, 2005 THE FEDS ARE LATE -- AND DEAD WRONG Seven years ago the U.S. government started studying the Internet to see if the Feds needed to do anything to keep everything on track. The study is finally done, and everything is apparently A-O.K.! Security is a minor issue, the 283-page report concludes, advising only modest tweaks to ward off hackers. Modest tweaks? Was this page written in 1998? The Internet is a limitless haven for hackers, criminals and terrorists. And if enough turned their anger towards the Net itself, our public backbone could be in peril. In a move truly sensational in its very obviousness, the report suggests a few more domains to keep pace with the need for new Web addresses. Dang, wish I'd thought of that. http://www7.nationalacademies.org/cstb/pub_dns.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
