That's the problem isn't it? Who decides what can and cant go through. I th=
ink the tier approach is better, a basic user account where everything is b=
locked and a Sysadmin type account where everything is open. If the price i=
s different enough then only people who are going to use those extra ports =
will actually pay for it.

SBC in my area (Dallas) went from wide open to outbound 25 blocked by
default/opened on request. I think doing the same thing with port 22 would
hardly be an undue burden on users, and would help keep botnets in check.
