  And? It's still a very good paper. Age doesn't change that.

    First of all, the internet has changed in the past 10 years. Second, it's best practice here to put the date in the title for old articles.

      > First of all, the internet has changed in the past 10 years. Not much. We're still using TCP/IP, BGP and NAT. Web-standards may have evolved, but the internet is still the same, except for the average link being 10x faster now. > Second, it's best practice here to put the date in the title for old articles. I agree.

      If you think the internet is the world wide web as well, then sure, it's changed a lot. But the actual internet infrastructure is still the same, this paper discusses the protocols and architectural problems. I challenge you to name something that has changed. Even IPv6 was formalized 15 years ago.

        One of the WWW things that has changed, maybe not Internet technology specifically: if you are a business that moves very large volumes of packets, it doesn't matter that you have plenty of upstream bandwidth because the residential ISPs will refuse to upgrade their equipment on behalf of their customers.
