If i may ask,
First: What does it take to monitor the web?
Second: What does it take to block a torrent, say Pirate bay. I never followed up on the megaupload case
CCK will have to hire very tough hackers to be able to bypass some of
the security protocols most of us use. And with the lack of capacity
in KE, hiring guys from Eastern Europe for this, will be expensive.
Automation in Information Security never works, only for the lazy.
So don't believe everything you hear.
Kindly,
