http://slashdot.org is a geek-oriented news page. They have many, many readers and the "Slashdot effect" is a common short hand for the effect of sudden popularity on the infrastructure serving a particular piece of content. They have linked to the URL to the Carnivore presentation from NANOG20 http://videolab.uoregon.edu/nanog/carnivore/. The ftp service for the mpeg files and the iptv players is no longer available, and I infer that the mass of slashdot readers trying to grab a 382mb file is the reason. Sorry if my shorthand for the event was confusing, regards, Ted
It looks like a slashdot link to the UO Carnivore files has taken out the service. TedWhat ever that means!
