      @scottalanmiller Until they subpoena Cloudflare (or any other provider).

      You assume that CF tracks historical DNS. Likely they do not. Would make no sense.

            I truly hope this happens, and the resulting histories are made public. Then we are one step closer to stringing the offending politricksters up by their short n curlies.

              It's funny that there are only republicans who took money to pass this.

                You're surprised? We may be getting a bit too political here though.

                  Well surprised on two things, one only republicans are listed. Cause I'm sure there was a dem that took some money, and two that none of the dems are listed.

                  Which is a bit insane.

                      Right but this was voted on a partisan divide. These were the people (and the donations they received) that voted in favour. I'm sure Dems also received money from ISPs... but their vote was probably a bit more expensive.

                        If dems had the majority, this bill would probably have not come up for a vote. This is what you get when you vote republican, bunch of old farts that can hardly turn on the computer making decisions that defy all logic and benefit corporate overlords.
                        Btw, the votes were along the party lines on this 50:48.

                                eh, the fact remains that appflash exists even if limited in opt-in testing on a single model phone.

                                  verizon did this to see what the backlash would be. Expect this to be mandatory on all their phones within a year or two.

                                        They will either hide it completely or rebrand it to not be AppFlash. The other thing is... how many consumers will actually care or take the time to understand what it is?

                                            Sprint already remotely installs apps on their Android phones. Had one install right in front of my eyes. I could uninstall it, but it would be back. Can't disable it either, which sucks.
