    HN links it for network traffic measurements and botnet research; the one comment here only raises a BGP routing question rather than judging the blog.

      Internet routing is supposed to be a distributed system alright, but most of the internet services (except China's) are not hosted in China. Wouldn't it be easy to add a policy to BGP that effectively blacklists (or gives a low priority) to routers in Chinese AS's?

      I guess what would be difficult is to reach a consensus on adding the above route.. oh well.
