[General] Kuwait ISP's Topology and Peering

[Faisal AlAbhoul]

Ahhh yal Qahar!  Do you know what ZAIN went through to see this TRA in action in kuwait? i'll leave you to imagine the scenario and how they ended up escaping to Bahrain.

KUIX i hear you say? have a go at this Bo 3abdallah:

Tell me what you see, for me i saw Newspapers and Banks as nodes and end points that can even Peer to outside Kuwait, how ironic?!

Wallah ya Talal everyone about to explode, the aroma of corruption is
everywhere. Be it from the new privatizing legislation to the
un-announced banking sector modifications.

        

I dont want to spoil the essence of this mail group with politics and
stuff but look around you, it reached our bit and byte now. From the
start of Microsoft's being the IT blackhole for Kuwait to the our
country's policy in UN just going with the flow without evaluating the
consequences.....example is the Open XML issue.

        

Our ISP's peering was the last straw, i wish i didn't dig into this
matter but i was helping a dear person to me researching this
subject..........i wish i was just left alone with my cup of tea.
