Here’s where things start to go off the rails: what this means is that all of the DPRK’s national network is non-routable IP space. You heard me; they’re treating their entire country like some small to medium business might treat their corporate office. The entire country of North Korea is sitting on one class A network (16,777,216 addresses). I was always under the impression they were just pretending that they owned large blocks of public IP space from a networking perspective, blocking everything and selectively turning on outbound traffic via access control lists. Apparently not!

Does this sound ridiculous, a perverse #fantasy of some balkanized #Web of the #dystopian #future? Nope: it’s all true, except that my #laptop is actually an #iPad and my #browser is #iTunes / #iBooks.
On the Web, the very idea that the right to read a website would vary from country to country seems patently absurd. #Cyberspace is flat, after all, just computers talking to computers. You, the reader, do not need to concern yourself with where these electrons on your screen are coming from, and neither do I, their publisher, need to care where they are going. And when somebody attempts to artificially block those #electrons — say, #China and its #Great-Firewall — it’s the kind of the thing that the #US #Congress and the #World Trade Organization get worked up about
I always use “bindist” USE flag in my #Gentoo installations. That’s why my #chromium was not able to play #h264 videos - this codec is used by #vimeo. H264 support also have been removed from #chrome and #mozilla #firefox won’t support it, as it is non-free. Also, binary builds of chromium in #Debion cannot be done with #h264 support because then those #binaries won’t be redistributable. And it seems the only way to watch #vimeo in #browser is to build non-redistributable #chromium yourself. Of course, Gentoo simplifies this task enormously. Also, this is yet another example of how #open-source differs from #free-software, obviously. I forgot to mention that #flash is not an option for me.
