so... aside from the every 3 months bitching on this list (and some on
v6ops maybe) about these sorts of things, what's happening to
tell/educate/warn/notice the hotspot-vendors that this sort of
practice (along with 'everything is at 1.1.1.1!') is just a bad plan?
How can users, even more advanced users, tell a hotspot vendor in a
meaningful way that their 'solution' is broken?
