[asterisk-users] FW: Under heavy attack

[Joel Maslak]

Be careful, telcos may make the users responsible if they have insecure PBXes...right now they often write off much of the charges.

But I do agree that there would be a lot less garbage on the net if everyone was liable for their insecurity. Heck, there would be no SIP attacks if everyone's systems were secure - there would be no gain in trying to exploit reasonably unexploitable systems.
