Re: Great Idea

Uhm blocking data is already a very easy thing to do.

This just allows us to block executable code with certain signatures.

Whats to stop them from blocking ascii code with certain words?

And, where are you talking about blocking, because any sort of data inspection doesnt happen on the backbone. Core routers in exchanges hardly filter anything, and even then its not by content. To re-assamble every message in transit to inspect it to see if there is a certain block of bytes in it is rediculous.

It would be perfect for the NSA, FBI, CIA, and DoHS. Why have them build stuff that can look at everything and get blasted for it while everyone supports the "virus innoculizer" and its "side jobs".

But how would this setup keep the retarded from not loading virus/hoax/ad/spy/trojan-ware in the first place via web, mail, whatever? And just cuz it's on the Internet in many places won't stop the spread if there's a non-innoculized route. I'm sure there would be, especially with cable co's and their infrastructure.

Nice idea but don't think it'll work.
