I wonder what's the positive effect of sharing the same Internet with the chinese. I never visit nor I know someone who visits sites from China.
Major ISPs from the west should definitely consider blackholing all traffic coming from there to avoid DoS attacks, spam, etc. – From my experience, this would mitigate spam by a 50% or even more.
Yeah, screw all those Chinese people living overseas who want to keep in contact with their relatives back home. Screw everybody who visits China and doesn't want to be cut off from the world while they're there. Screw the hundreds of billions of dollars in trade to and from China which the internet facilitates.
I wonder what's the positive effect of sharing the same Internet with the French?
Or the Americans? How about the Scottish? I know I personally want rid of the Irish from the internet, so we should black-hole all traffic from there too while we're at it.
Not that I agree with the parent, but you're being disingenuous. The Americans, Sottish, French, and Irish are not actively trying to wreck the Internet, certain US Congress members notwithstanding. There's a difference between throwing someone out of your store because you don't like the look of them and throwing someone out of your store because they shit on the floor every time they come in.
The Chinese people aren't actively trying to wreck the Internet either. It's more like banning everyone with black skin from your store because a black person once robbed it.
That's a pretty stupid idea. Lot's occidental businesses are (or area trying) to expand their market to china. Give it a look to this map [1], and you'll understand why China is a massive opportunity.
