My college didn't have internet campus wise, you had access to a limited, firewalled internet "protected" by Fortinet so i can't feel empathy for the MIT alumni since you can perfectly work without those tools.
- juniorpatcher 9y agoSorry that your college doesn't see Internet access the same way MIT does. But don't you think that by making its campus network more unnecessarily restrictive, MIT is setting a bad example?
- akhilcacharya 9y agoNot OP, but not really. In the age of AWS, maybe it's time the elites see how the other half lives?
- manquer 9y agoNo op , i am happy my uni does not see the internet as MIT does and acts far more responsibly. MIT by holding one to class A address block for so long have sets a bad example. Much of the 16million address owned by them are never really used. How many other universities have access to this kind of wasted luxury ? Standford returned theirs back ages years ago. Sure IPv6 was inevitable but if ford, MIT and rest had not been so greedy the rest of the world would have not grown up beind a NATed internet. I share an ip with 1000's of others, every third google search throws up a captcha..
