Gary,
I understand your statement, but I am sure the gentleman below does not.
If you want a story to be done, so that the world can see how something
like this can impact thousands of businesses, the best bet would be to
help educate this guy so that he has something to write.
Are, were you trying to scare him off from doing a story?
Personally, I am quote fed up with the issues that the huge providers have
and cause, yet never have anyone document it, find out about it, or do
anything about it. I laud this guys effort for actually trying to do his
job and expose something that needs to be exposed.
I am now putting on my level-3 bullet proof jacket, and will be looking
over my shoulder for the next 3 NANOGs.
