Re: Suspicious IP reporting

[JoeSox <joesox () gmail com>]

Jean,
That is fine. I don't understand why the ignorance. Its one flipping email
and people can reply to me without adding the list. Is this really a
necessary conversation? It has only blown up BECAUSE of Tom's comments.
That is great he is a big shot and contributes, that is great to hear.
I am not expereicncing the same type of onlist behavior.

Listen, I have devices on a cell network with only a few layers of security
(of course there is a plan to increase the security on those devices but
this is a complicated and highly regulated environment).
Someone contacted me off list telling me they beleive the IP is a command
and control server.
Cell networks like Verizon has a process to report these IPs, now I am not
educated in how the cellular network deal with that, that is where my
"ignorance" if you would like to call it that, comes in.
I see no issue asking other network admins to report it and fail to
understand why this particular issue is bad.
If there is a FEAR that everyone and their grandmother starts asking the
onlist community to report IP addresses, I think that is an an unnecessary
fear.

What has turned into "noise" that Tom feared so much has been his doing not
mine.
