so Google called me the other day and was rather vague on what they asked me for gathering info about poast. that was fine, poast blocks googles access, at least their access they let people search from.

they said they wanted a half hour of my time and that was it, I told them early April. someone emailed me telling me I had to sign a waiver, nope. I had to be on voice call, fine, I had to desktop share -- absolutely the fuck nope

I brought up to the Google exec that I refuse to share my desktop
"I will warn my users about this"
"that would be really bad for you"

OK

I keep saying it, but this keeps happening and you'll have a BGP war and absolutely no on wants a BGP war. It is the MAD of the internet.
