So let me get this straight. Microsoft got a court order to route all of another entity's DNS traffic to their servers. Giving them the ability to route a metric crap-ton of private traffic through their data centers. For "security". I call shenanigans.
I'm also assuming this is why my no-ip domain disappeared this morning, leaving me with no access to my home servers.
Perhaps the linux on my servers is considered malware. It sure is malicious to Microsoft's bottom line. I kid, but only a little.
- robert_nsu 12y agoNot exactly. > allowing us to identify and route all known bad traffic to the Microsoft sinkhole and classify the identified threats. According to MSFT, they are only looking at known "bad" traffic. You can take their word for it... or not.
- pbhjpbhj 12y agoIf that last line were true then surely the GP's noip domain would still work and traffic would be routing without any interference. Ergo, they are telling lies as they are not simply routing "bad traffic" elsewhere but also "good traffic".
- marcosdumay 12y agoHow do they know that some data is "bad" before looking at it? And I'm asking only because I know the answer - that it's impossible, they are looking at the entire traffic and (officially) deciding if it's "bad" afterwards.
- hendersoon 12y agoThat's what they said, but that is not what happened. They couldn't handle the load and every noip hostname stopped working. Every one.
