A New Future for Icanhazip

Chinese originated spam and abuse is so outrageously widespread, I don’t understand why there isn’t a conversation going on about cutting them off from the wider internet. They blocked most of it anyway.

I would rather have a global network with marginally more spam than a regional network with marginally less.

This false dichotomy is impressive. A single country accounting for for 50+% sets up the choice to be, “a global network with a lot less spam and a regional island with a lot of spam” vs “a global network with a ton of spam barely connected to a regional network that much of the spam originates from”.

That "single country" is of 1.4B people.

Why does that matter?

Calling China "a single country" minimizes the fact that it contains 18% of the world's people. It's hard to call something a "global network" if it leaves out that much of the world.
