Been happening for many years. How do you think the original
Boardwatch / Keynote speed tests were gamed? If you have any real
experience on the Internet, you are well acquainted with anycast web
servers.
Okie, I give up. You clearly have no idea what you are actually
talking about, so talk away, no one is listening. I started talking
to you 'cause I was having a bad day and it's fun to feed the troll.
It's not fun any more, and I'm sure others are tired of the thread.
One last comment (although I doubt you will understand): Reality
trumps... well, you.
