Who is the final boss of the internet?
Let's say there is objectionable content posted on a website and the site operator does not want to take it down. What can be done? Let's say this occurs in a country where no fucks are given about the content. Could the IP address be revoked by ICANN or something like that? Who would have the final say in somehow forcing the site down and how would it be done?
>external power supply
I actually want one of these
what the fuck was the use case of this? i'm assuming expansion beyond 4DIMM when per stick capacity was dogshit, but how does it actually perform coming from PCI(?)
this shit is before my time no bully
This entire thread and everyone in it is fucking retarded.
>>/reddit/
it's a ramdrive the drive is used like a hard drive to save and access files and you can even boot from it
i would like to know the answer to OP's question
thats alot of ram
It's really not, maybe 4 gig.
This thing is ~10 years old.
is there a current day equivalent? it seems like a prehistoric Optane or NVMe drive to me.
If the content poster and site operator do not care and no laws of that country are broken then why would it ever need to be taken down? Nobody else should have a say or the power to take it down.
That's roughly what it is.
there are server ram drives that go up to large capacity, like terabytes
there are fast workstation PCI cards from intel, but I don't know of anyone making a desktop grade volatile ram memory drive
if anyone knows of one i would love to see it
shit's fast as hell

fucking WEW
ICANN's IANA division is the final boss. I'm not sure what the legal agreements are like, but IANA can almost certainly kick any AS off the public internet if it's openly hosting child porn or some shit.
>If the content poster and site operator do not care and no laws of that country are broken then why would it ever need to be taken down?
let's say they are state secrets or something, hurtcore cp, I don't know. What if it is in a country that might theoretically care but is too poor and backwards to have any ability to actually have cops go find a server and take it down, like in africa.
Who gets to say who owns the name of the site and the IP? Could the IP be redirected to someone else by ICANN?

how what is the mechanism of action
>>$1495 MSRP in 2010
I have seen them used on eBay for $50
i want one just to fuck with, shame about the 4gb max though
Yeah I fantasized about stuff like that back then.
Instead I went for something slightly less retarded but still pretty awesome (idiotic), WD raptor drives in RAID0.
Pretty fun hearing them spin up to 10K RPM.
I partitioned a ram drive out of system ram and booted a virtual machine from it, shit was pretty cache.
escalation levels for takedown:
>you
>your hosting provider
>your hosting providers responsible agency (if they cooperate with said foreign agency)
>services that you rely on financially and for visibility: google (search engines), google adsense (ad networks), credit card providers, banking institutes. these all will usually comply and cripple your finances unless the said content isn't illegal in the country and not against their TOS.
>ICANN
Needed. Once you turn you PC off, all is lost. The power supply keeps the data on the RAM
I feel like you'd hid bandwidth issues by just using an x1 slot. I would think to get good speed across DIMMs you'd need something faster or wider.
Even dark net sites have been taken down if their illegal enough.
If someone in country A posts country A's state secrets and country A does not care then there is no problem. If someone in country A posts country B's state secrets and country A refuses to do anything it is up to country B to figure out how to force country A to take it down. If a country does not have the resources to handle it they can either ask for assistance or will have to simply tolerate it. For something like CP sure it's awful to think nothing could be done but in order to allow the Internet to flourish some negative things will be unavoidable. A world where an unaccountable international entity has the ability to make content vanish is not a world we should strive for.
>Even dark net sites have been taken down if their illegal enough.
how
Most designs I saw just used a SATA port. And the PCI(e) port was merely for power delivery or just stability.
it's mainly about seek and random writes and reads than throughput
Ssd's didn't exist. These were used as buffer to hdd raid array or just an ultra fast hard drive
DPR failed to follow basic opsec. All the other takedowns I've heard about were because the site operators did retarded shit like meet up with other people to rape children IRL.
what can ICANN exactly do
SSDs didn't become common until the early 2010s but in the mid 2000s they were deployed sometimes in enterprise environments on a limited basis. they were relatively slow and had rather limited write endurance by modern standards. iirc the ssd was invented around 1970 but wasn't really implemented until the late 90s.
>Let's say there is objectionable content posted on a website
just hoard it faggot
See the daily stormer. While not illegal, they are censored of the internet for their political beliefs.
They could not keep a domain on any registrar, and they would get constantly DDoSed. They are now on the darkweb afaik.
Sorry, looks like I'm retarded. I've been trying to find [citation]s but it looks like IANA and the various RIRs claim not to have the ability to take anything down.
Your RIR could probably revoke your assigned ASN, which should cause your peering partners to drop you, but I can't find any instance of that ever happening so it might not even be possible.
I assume most ASes will stop peering with you if you host illegal content and refuse to take it down, so there may not have been any need for a formal policy on this kind of thing yet.
If anyone actually has an informed opinion to give on this I'd love to hear it, but this is Jow Forums and I expect everyone to be as retarded as I am.
no it's fine
So ultimately, the media and LE control the internet by making you impossible to host and not caring about you being DDoSed.
For illegal stuff, drugs/CP it's a lot more complicated. But if the media did pay as much attention as they do with politics they could take you down, but they don't care. you'll probably just be DNS-filtered from most of the world.
I'm old, i know about eeprom.
at the end of the day who is it that says who has what IP address? Could they not revoke the IP from whoever "officially" has it?
the controller latency and the pcie 1x interface gets you shit that's slower than a good sata 6gbps drive.
what a retard.
>ICANN
they can't do anything about it and has nothing to do with anything whatsoever.
>they can't do anything about it anything and has nothing to do with anything whatsoever.
well if you owned www.allthecp.com and wanted it to point to xxx.xxx.ip ICANN could stop that from happening and your domain would stop being associated with any IP
The five RIRs are in charge of leasing out IP addresses (and ASNs) to various entities like ISPs and corporations.
From what I can see it looks like allocations do sometimes get revoked, but only for stuff like not paying your fees or fucking up technical details.
ARIN even states outright that they do not "police how those IP addresses are used" and you should contact either the AS owner or the police if you have any issues.
this is a dumb question but how does anyone know where any IP is supposed to be? What is to stop me from changing my IP to whatever i want?
machine learning and the internet of things
can't it be powered from the 5v stand by line?
Each autonomous system has a big table of other autonomous systems, the IP ranges they own and what the correct route to them is. It's called the BGP routing table.
When you send a packet to e.g. Google, it makes its way to one of your ISP's edge routers. which looks at the table and determines which AS the packet should be forwarded to. This might be Google's AS, or it might be some other AS that is capable of delivering your packet there.
IPs are allocated, not chosen. "Changing your IP" is like giving people the wrong phone number. You can do it, but you're not going to get any calls.
they license registrars and registers. you can lose your registrar or register license if you go against the ICANN.
imbecile.
but before that, the icann allocates the blocks to the five regional internet registries.
icann.org
>Who is the final boss of the internet?
Right, but ICANN doesn't have any real authority over them. Can you imagine them threatening to wipe Europe off the face of the internet because some random slav is hosting CP?
>what is ramfs ( or tmpfs )
wiki.debian.org
top kek
Yes, by making electricity illegal and a crime against humanity.
>you'll probably just be DNS-filtered from most of the world
>because that's always worked before
All they need to do is change the domain name.
Even then they struggle. It's nearly impossible to do without AI and if you did use AI your problem would be less nazies taking over the internet, more robots censoring anything not functional (basically mechanising the internet).
>Could the IP address be revoked by ICANN or something like that?
in theory ARIN, RIPE or whoever is reponsible could, in practice they won't
>but IANA can almost certainly kick any AS off the public internet if it's openly hosting child porn or some shit.
wrong, for two reasons
IANA can't kick anyone off and you can host literal cp in ukraine and nothing will happen
>I assume most ASes will stop peering with you if you host illegal content and refuse to take it down
this is the most realistic option, however most Tier 1 providers will rarely take any action and tell you to complain to their client directly
look at Ecatel/Quasi Networks for an example
realistically, nothing AT ALL
>realistically, nothing AT ALL
ICANN cannot stop your IP from being associated with your domain name?
Not him, but domains have a completely different allocation infrastructure. I'm pretty sure ICANN can't do anything about them either, though. Registrars are required to provide some way of reporting abuse, but not technically required to act on abuse reports as far as I can tell.
you could also just host an onion website, where you just need to focus on securing your anonymity and security.
I thought the way it worked is when you buy a domain you input what IP you want associated with that domain then ICANN puts that on the official DNS so that when some random computer searches for where the domain name points (IP) it gets the right one.
If ICANN wanted to they could disassociate your domain from any IP and then nobody would know where it was "supposed" to point whey they look at the DNS
I think the problem with censorship is the same problem people have with building societies - the devil finds a way to destroy it.
That's not at all how DNS works. >>>/wikipedia/
how does it work
Most prominently, it translates more readily memorized domain names to the numerical IP addresses needed for locating and identifying computer services and devices with the underlying network protocols. By providing a worldwide, distributed directory service, the Domain Name System has been an essential component of the functionality of the Internet since 1985
Here's your starting point:
en.wikipedia.org
how does any of that contradict the basic premise of my post? The premise is that at some level some body can stop listing any IP address as associated with whatever your domain is rendering useless without having to find you and make you take down anything
Well, ICANN (or other regulatory bodies) could only ban a sites IP from the registry they are responsible for.
ei if a .ca domain name was redirecting to that IP, they could simply disable that, but not the site itself.
What they CANT do is mess with that IP or the actual contents of the website.
>they could play a jewish trick and just pay some cops off to go and raid the server room where the content is hosted i guess...
There isn't just one somebody. Removing illegal content is the job of each individual TLD operator. ICANN and the various root server operators don't get a say.
Of course, most TLD operators are governments and will therefore take down blatantly illegal stuff. (If the bureaucrats in charge can be bothered, of course.)
There are many DNS services. Amazon, Google, local ISP, and even custom ones.
>There are many DNS services. Amazon, Google, local ISP, and even custom ones.
they all copy ICANN's DNS user, there is a canonical DNS, it's not like you can call amazon and ask them to change what IP goes with your url
that thing you call "canonical DNS" are the TLD nameservers
if you get north korea to give you a .kp domain, it's up to them how they act on abuse reports
ICANN has no say in this
>if you get north korea to give you a .kp domain,
but who at the end of the day says what address points to any .kp domain?
who gives authority to North Korea and not me to make .kp subdomains? Whoever can do that should be able to fuck your url
This or cutting the wire that connects it to the WWW backbone.
I'm with this guy. If you go further than that you are now bombing data centers.
the responsibility for that is delegated to north koreas nameservers by ICANN
>the responsibility for that is delegated to north koreas nameservers by ICANN
If ICANN can do that why could they not fuck over any individual domain?
I mean, sure, if they want to start a war.
No, because good hardware designers are expensive.
>>>/hell/
Yes. But if you turn off your PC. What is also in the RAM will be lost. However with the external DC power. You can turn off the PC and keep the data that was in.
It is literally an external RAMDisk seen as a HDD (Format it first)
I want one with 4x16GB DDR4 3200MHz on PCIE 16X
>I want one with 4x16GB DDR4 3200MHz on PCIE 16X
meeee too
how much trouble would it be to use a server ramdrive board?
