Default Win OS and Firewalls to be banned???

Use a Firewall, then Click me

Quote:
An example: Most operating system products (including every version of Windows introduced in the last five years, and virtually all versions of Linux) would also apparently be banned, because they support connection sharing via NAT.
And the states in question are HERE.


Kinda makes me glad I am a Canadian.

some of you may know about this already but still.

I'd take an Apple laptop over a WinOS laptop anyday. But there's no way I'd betray my WinOS desktop system.

April Fool's day was 10 days ago, your late. Wait a second...this isn't a joke?

No firewall?!?!? Do they want us to get hacked or something? Please be a joke.

hmmm...I live in Iowa. And since it's not on "The List", that means I don't have to worry about my machine being hacked/banned/blown up/fried/arrested/other thing....

What about ISP's like AOL dial-up where one would have a diffrent IP everytime a aol member sign on. Would that mean AOL members will be banned???.

Well, I can't remove my firewall, no matter what I do, I even called Linksys my ISP... I hope they do ban it so I can finaly share files, enter FTP's, play some MMORPG's, and more stuff. It's not as easy as it looks...
