Whoa. Cool.

You should start a public poll in the P&R Forum with this.

I can't read that blog entry. What, AT&T just rolling over and letting the NSA do whatever they want?? That sucks.......I'm using Att lines all over the place. Guess they now know how much I like porn.

I would imagine that the site you ping may have something to do about the tracking too.

alpacalove.com does not trace through ATT.

I'm too tired to go re-edit mine, so I just deleted it for now. :bigyawn:

Doesn't look like i'm being tracked, don't have traffic directed to the san fran route. Not that they would find anything interesting anyway.

Just because you have att.net lines in your traceroute, doesn't mean that you are being monitored. It could mean that a hop was down at the time, and your internet traffic had to be rerouted.

You do know that ATT owns about 25% of the Cisco routers being used in USA right?

That is because they have turned off ICMP on their routers.

I'm going by what the article says, and that I have read that ATT is working hand in hand with the government
