eBay and the DoS thread
- From: Richard A Steenbergen

I would like to take this opportunity to publicly shame eBay, who decided
to fire one of their engineers for disclosing their "proprietary" methods
for defending against DoS in the recent NANOG thread.
The only appropriate punishment for a company with its head so far up
its proverbial poop chute to prevent the sharing of simple recommendations
on DoS prevention with the networking community is that all useful,
intelligent, and responsable people consider their policies carefully
before working there.
