The name of the game is you create it, you set your own rules. The United States Gov't was involved w/ the Internet before people thought about it being more than just a US gov't system. As far as the SOA, someone probably copied and pasted another SOA not really knowing what they were doing (or copied pasted, saved, modified, forgot to hit save). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -ITG (ITechGeek) ITG () ITechGeek Com https://itg.nu/ GPG Keys: https://itg.nu/contact/gpg-key Preferred GPG Key: Fingerprint: AB46B7E363DA7E04ABFA57852AA9910A DCB1191A Google Voice: +1-703-493-0128 / Twitter: ITechGeek / Facebook: http://fb.me/Jbwa.Net On Mon, Oct 20, 2014 at 6:57 AM, Nick Hilliard <nick () foobar org> wrote:
