Apologies for the cross posting but I think this is one worth
tracking:<br>
<br>
<br>
A sad but inevitable resolution of where things might need to go.
This is<br>
a first take, reported on Google+ of the Consensus reached.<br>
<br>
<br>
<b><i>Arturo Servin originally shared to IETF (Discussion):</i></b><br>
<b><i> </i></b><br>
The consensus today (taken from the transcript of the Technical
Plenary)<br>
appear to be: <br>
<br>
<br>
1 "WE ALL BELIEVE THAT PERVASIVE SURVEILLANCE IS AN ATTACK AND THE
IETF<br>
NEEDS TO ADJUST OUR THREAT MODEL TO CONSIDER IT WHEN DEVELOPING<br>
STANDARDS TRACK SPECIFICATIONS, SO WE SHOULD CONSIDER THIS EVOLVED<br>
THREAT MODEL WHEN CONSIDERING WHETHER TO STANDARDS TRACK
SPECIFICATIONS<br>
ARE ACCEPTABLE OR NOT" <br>
<br>
2 "THE IETF SHOULD INCLUDE ENCRYPTION EVEN OUTSIDE OF AUTHENTICATION<br>
WHERE PRACTICAL." <br>
<br>
3 "THE IETF SHOULD STRIVE FOR END-TO-END ENCRYPTION EVEN WHEN THERE
ARE<br>
MIDDLE BOXES IN THE PATH." <br>
<br>
4 " THE IETF SHOULD CREATE SECURE VERSIONS OF POPULAR NON-SECURE<br>
PROTOCOLS"<br>
<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
