Internet routing is supposed to be a distributed system alright, but most of the internet services (except China's) are not hosted in China. Wouldn't it be easy to add a policy to BGP that effectively blacklists (or gives a low priority) to routers in Chinese AS's?

I guess what would be difficult is to reach a consensus on adding the above route.. oh well.

ever heard about Net Neutrality?


This has nothing to do with net neutrality - we're talking about routing policy, not traffic policy.
