> What problem are we trying to solve?
The problem where DNS providers, such as Dyn, are taken down, leading to outages to large swaths of the internet.
> Why that problem next?
The recommendation to tackle this problem next is the topic of discussion. Namely, the DDoS letter to Chairman Wheeler.
The letter inappropriately confuses fixing this recent outage/attack on DNS with preventing IoT devices from being compromised. My proposal (the high level comment) is to fix the problem being discussed by fixing DNS (making it difficult, as a core internet service, from being DDoSed).
