Not comparing this to the former-DDR or Chinese situation (please refer
to my tin-foil remark above) a per-country specific prefix is not
necessarily a bad thing and may even have an upside.

Care to explain what that could possibly be? (I simply don't see an
upside to making it easy to censor the internet by national identity).


Maintenance of "GeoIP"-databases becomes easier and less error-prone ?

Possible less out of date because of it.

We've seen complaints about those many times on this list.
