John O Doherty is the Chairman of the most useless regulator in the whole EU , namely Comreg in Ireland. He is the founding Chairman of BEREC. Enough said.

At least the admit their failings in the UK

In Ireland they are unregulated and can do as they please , remember the Reg article on the loack of SMTP ??

One poor 3 Ireland customer was driven to this

At least they admit they cannot deliver a consistent user experience in the UK

Whereas in Ireland they are unregulated and would never bother admitting to shaping or to any QOS enfocement .

That is why one poor customer was driven to this , you had better look at it before it is permanently throttled or worse still nuked outright by their filters :)

Missile Gaps

Let me see.

In about 1985 the Americans took out one of their own sats with a missile air launched from an F15 and maybe 300km up.

In about 2007 the Chinese out one of their own sats with a ground launched system and maybe 600km up

Now the Americans have 'proven' they can ground launch to 250km .

As for teh Royal Navy , their computer would have shown the sat as "friendly" so the missile would not have launched . The American computers have no such 'scruples' :)

Its TWICE as vulnerable as any other router

Read this witter from the suppliers, Netopia, as to why.
