This is an OpenPGP/MIME signed message (RFC 2440 and 3156) --------------enigD2EFA1FC2E246A1F89A5009B Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Matthias Apitz wrote: > To the OP: Be aware that depending on the local laws you might (will) b= e > responsible if the NATed IP is used in criminal affairs (downloads, > child porno, etc.); at least the local authorities will ask you who use= d > that IP and take your complete system with them for further > investigations, scanning your logs and disks; >=20 > even if it is a nice idea and you have good neighbors, I would not do > that here in Germany; Yes, I'm well aware of the laws in this regard. It wont be illegal to relay any traffic, for whatever reason. It's far more likely that I will violate the contract I have with my ISP, than Norwegian criminal law. But it will of course be unpleasant for me, if someone used my network for illegal activities, for the reasons you mention. Still, I'd like to set up something like this, if for nothing else, the challenge of doing it. I might even make people aware that the traffic is being monitored, and that will probably make people behave. An alternative to the inserted text in all http traffic (and probably easier to implement) is just to divert all unknown traffic to an internal ip-adress (using the firewall), and setup a web page on that address. Then have people click some button, which will rewrite the fw rules for that specific machine (white list).
