Wall of sheep certainly is humorous, but IL CERT using this
data as a shaming mechanism is, well, a shame.=20

Once the NOC engages in an excercise of futility based on that

more futile, which is another shame. It's a good project,
but it got ripe before it was ready, IMO.

BTW, are you vouching for the report?
