<pre style="font-size: 9pt;"><tt>Hi Suresh and others,
we have discussed at this list recently also some ethical questions. Part of the
traditional e-Mail Netiquette is that one should not send more than five (5)
e-mails to a list per day. Before putting the reply button one should think
about what I have to say and consider to summarize the ideas of the day in one
or two mails. 30 e-mails within two days is definitely too much. I understand
that vibrant debates need a quick reply. However, the old netiquette, laid down
in RFC 1855 - Netiquette Guidelines <<a href="http://www.google.de/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=rfc%201855%20netiquette%20guidelines&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&ved=0CDIQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ietf.org%2Frfc%2Frfc1855.txt&ei=fViyULyUIsfBtAbiv4GQAQ&usg=AFQjCNHJDaCrMM1WEvpUgffCQn1l1gYrTQ" target="_blank">http://www.google.de/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=rfc%201855%20netiquette%20guidelines&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&ved=0CDIQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ietf.org%2Frfc%2Frfc1855.txt&ei=fViyULyUIsfBtAbiv4GQAQ&usg=AFQjCNHJDaCrMM1WEvpUgffCQn1l1gYrTQ</a>>
was not so bad.
Best wishes

Even if your traffic does pass through a western country it would be because the
destination is there unless your isp is unwise enough not to peer with other
local isps

Well, we can exclude local traffic passing via IXPs or maybe within the
same network, and maybe very sensitive data that move across the same
Intranet, or maybe traffic that moves within censorship-driven countries.

No one has evidence about either scenario (everything is monitored vs.
something is monitored vs. nothing is monitored). But would you disagree
that Internet traffic moving overseas does have to pass at access points
based in Western countries?

Not really. Business is one aspect of the story, but national interests is
another (especially Western countries that keep using the term "War on
Terror").
