Just for fun I tracked some IP’s and found that the packets are going all over the place…not very good routing at all, although I heard that routing is actually controlled by VDC.

I dont know, maybe you can help me clear this problem I been wondering about. Is it true that the vietnamese government monitor ur internet activity?
Most likely but I have not heard a story of anyone being arrested or anything. Normally questionable sites are just filtered out.
Hmmmmmmm, thx for the info, i guess i wont be doing anything stupid right now
