John,
  This is actually an important point. It may be desirable to the
community, but not to our customers who are buying NAP service. Our first
priority has to be to our customers, though we hope we can fulfill the goal
of assisting the Internet community in the process.

  Not totally sure if you were agreeing or disagreeing. ATM NAP providers
at least would have a hard time looking at datagrams as a whole to do
"wiretapping". Maybe we can give you the average number of 1's and 0's in
