Obviously not. We are talking about routers here. They forward
packets, and sometimes they are configured not to forward packets.
Schools in the good ole U S of A deny certain packets, as do most
companies. Would you rather China had no routers at all?
Perhaps you and Vadim should get Bob Metcalfe to write an article
about this new network, then China's Internet will be on the verge of
collapse even before it starts.
