I don't think that is quite what Kaminsky was referring to. His methods
were to detect when an ISP was altering data that went to its customers
in ways that would benefit the ISP. In this case, unless only AT&amp;T
subscribers got the censored feed, it was just plain censorship, not
"provider hostility," which I think is the phrase Kaminsky used. I do
believe the worst case was when it would take some network insanity on
the level of what Kaminsky was suggesting to even detect the
censorship. Muted audio in a webcast isn't exactly subtle, so at least
we know that some censoring is going on.<br>
