I think what you mean is that your ISP is unlikely to be SPECIFICALLY messing with you. If you have residential cable or dsl from the local duopoly they are quite likely to be messing with you. They may provide DNS with bogus TTLs, send RST packets intended to break bitorrent connections, throttle traffic based on deep packet inspection rather than say, just volume, screw things up with hidden proxies that make unwarranted assumptions about your traffic, returning bogus DNS records instead of NXDOMAIN, changing inflight http responses to insert ads, tracking or helping others track what websites you use for marketting purposes. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
