Interesting theory.
I take it you know nothing about Internetworking?
Perhaps you should look at https://www.TheWorld.com/~bzs
Or, again, Zerohedge?
Nope, knew nothing off-hand about them but wikipedia seems to concur that Zerohedge is likely a "Russian asset". Thanks. Nonetheless it doesn't particularly mean that 99% of HK traffic *doesn't* go thru that facility, not alone. Broad comparisons to other national internet structures as you appeal to seems to be questionable in regards to a Special Administrative Region of The People's Republic of China, albeit officially ruled under "one system, two ways", HK being one of the regions (Macau being the other) which is ruled under the "second" way. China can be unique in their communications policies and practices. Which is why I asked hoping someone knew the facts rather than had an opinion about the particular source or some theory unifying all national internet infrastructures under some simple rule of thumb. -- -Barry Shein Software Tool & Die | mailto:bzs () TheWorld com | http://www.TheWorld.com Purveyors to the Trade | Voice: +1 617-STD-WRLD | 800-THE-WRLD The World: Since 1989 | A Public Information Utility | *oo*
