Re: Canadian vs USA VPS (was Re: setting up email server)

In that event, I just want to say: I think this group has a great chance at being fine. Meet at the Diefenbunker with your radios and splicers. Good gloves. Any extras you have around like: phone junction boxes, patch cables, RJ45 connectors, headlamps, high-vis vests, first aid kits. Drive there but have your best bike in the back. They have all the old references (ex. Morse code).

So, not only can Canadian sites using .com be locked out of their
domains, and sites hosted in US clouds be denied access, but even if
all that were on .ca and hosted in Canada, our interconnects are
pathetic.

If the US shut off our Internet access and took down our domains, it
would be as part of a military attack against us, in which case our
Internet connectivity would be the least of our problems.

Not saying we shouldn't invest in connectivity that bypasses the US,
but we should be realistic.
