They say they are wanted to make a new internets! NO! The internets are fine how they are! (could use a spell checker tho but firefox has that)

What dose the internet not have that we want? There is porn, flash games, porn, instant messaging, porn, online video games, did I mention porn? Why would you change that!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?! Angry

They might be adding a Anti-Retard blocker for some on-line games.

And most possibly forums, too!

That's stupid, Just because a book said Jesus is real you believe it?

It would cost too much money, too much time and too meny people would be pissed. Think about it.


Presence is a curious thing, if you think you need to prove it... you probably never had it in the first place.

Never touch a running system

When people ask me "Plz" just because it's shorter than "Please" I feel perfectly justified to answer "No" because it's shorter then "Yes"

Programming is like sex: one mistake and you have to support it for the rest of your life

Want the best answers? Ask the best questions!

No, it definitely will happen. I'm sure it'll be a long time before it does, but when it does go through I think it will be apparent that they're doing the right thing.

Same here, it isnt a bad thing, because I think that things will get more efficient that way, and it will not make our current internet go away, it will just gradually be moved to the new internet.

I welcome an internet designed from the ground up with, among other things, online gaming and large file transfers in mind.

Think of the size of files that had to be transferred when the Internet was designed, think of the size now, and think of the size in 20 years. Online gaming was spawned by the Internet may years after it was designed, so obviously it was no where near their minds when it was designed.

Ok everyone disconnect from internet at april 31st at 8pm gmt and don't reconnect for 2 hours, the new internet should be ready then and your computer will automatically update it to establish a stable connection.

Please have fun.

If they rebuild the internet, I am sure they will secretly make a highly innovative "trace" feature to monitor what everyone is doing.

Proxies could become useless if a proper trace mechanism was introduced... think of Uplink. Given law enforcements wants, it's not too unrealistic, even if it is a bad idea for privacy.

That may be true but people are bound to find and exploit flaws in the new service, it's what they live for.
