We immediately DDoS the servers. We're like, oh, shoot, because Vint Cerf put a blog post out and he's a big name. And then it was like this job of years and years of getting servers in different interconnection points because we wanted to measure across consumers. We're not just measuring to a server.

Exactly, and we need to cross interconnection points to do that because that's where you begin to see... interesting business relationships and kind of feuds. And it was just, it was very, it taught me about like how difficult and contingent and ultimately subjective creating data is. And the process, the political process of then sort of defending that data is, as a reliable proxy for reality.

Cause I would be at the federal communications commission and I had like Comcast across from me being like, no, we want to measure it, you know, multi-threaded TCP, you know, burst single threaded because you get a, you know, let's just say higher number that way it's more forgiving. And we would be sort of defending the methodology of our tests and the openness principles.

So it was open source code. The database architecture was open. I don't remember all the server architecture, everything. Old school.
