    This is about foreign customers only, so as an attempt to abolish the constitution, it is severely flawed in respecting it enough to keep its distance. I can't think of any US serv…

    I have all the love and appreciation in the world for enjoying a weekend spent in configuration files. But I feel the need to state the obvious: This is a long blog post ending wit…
