Now that the FCC has banned foreign made routers...
I wonder if they realize that pretty much every mobile phone that can support tethering has routing capability?
And many cars similarly provide routing access/NAT/firewall function to support passengers inside the vehicle.
Pretty much any laptop - running Windoz or MacOS or Linux or Freebsd - can be quickly turned into a "router".
This FCC panic reminds me of the days when the Feds were induced to try to bl…

I guess the comment I have about Kharg is, I’m not sure what the significance is of putting troops there.
It’s only about 20 miles off the coast of Iran. So you’re definitely under the threat of their weapon systems.
