Impacts of Encryption Everywhere (any solution?)

Wed Jun 20 00:25:40 UTC 2018

I encourage you to look at operating a network outside of a datacenter or corporate campus. 

The wireless last hop is *NOT* the problem. A modern deployment in a small village could put dozens of megabit/s to every house for $10k. The transit or transport connections *ARE* the fiscal problem.

I’m confused. 

People are using last hop (wireless) arguments against HTTPS Everywhere; that’s the part that requires full bandwidth either way (as your non-HTTPS cache is upstream somewhere). The fiber links that are physically fixed and can handle in many cases better lasers, are the ongoing upgradable part. 

If you’re complaining your fiber backhaul is too big a deal, you’re playing the wrong game to start with.
