Hi all,
During yesterday's takedown of the Internet [1] it has become painstakingly
obvious that the ability to distinguish malicious packets in a quick and
efficient manner is one of the most pressing security concerns of today.
Thus, RFC3514 (a.k.a. "evil" bit) [2] support was implemented [3] in the Linux

It is our hope that other operating systems and network devices will follow the
suite soon and help us make Internet a safer and more welcoming place for
everyone!
Hey, they can't do that! I've got a real use for it...
