[AusNOG] Conroy announcement on filtering

[Skeeve Stevens]

Question,

Does anyone know the finer points of this proposal... meaning... is it aimed/directed at consumer/retail ISP's - which seems to be their justification - or to all ISP's who sell connectivity.. and what is the flow down effect?

I.e.  Does Vocus have to do this? Does Telstra Direct?  If I have an ISP we manage who has say both of those as transit providers, who are (?) filtered, do we then have to worry as the upstreams are?  It would be kind of redundant?

So, let's ponder that companies like Vocus, MCI, etc who only sell transit to businesses... or a business focused ISP - do they have to filter?

I have some Micro sized ISP's - like PowerTel partners and alike... do they have to filter?  They only have a few hundred connections and only to businesses.

Just pondering eintellego's response, but don't actually see anything that differentiates what an ISP is.

Thoughts?
