The more I think about this issue I am convinced it can be done and encourage comments about why it can not be done.
First I admit it would require intimate knowledge of TCP/IP communication protocols; especially at a lower level.
Second, signivicant increases in software and hence hardware resources would be required.
Lastly, total knowledge of the operating system (especially Vista, but even Windows) and its corresponding drivers and wrappers. It also would require total knowledge of layered software applications. Some of which may have to be customized per application.
Now what reasons are individuals trying to accomplish these limitations? I suspect they are at a minimum:
- Malicous software
- Privacy issues - I bought it but do not feel I give suppliers/corporations the right to transmit unauthorized data/information.
- I have a right to know what is transmitted
- It may be cracked software attempting to call home (This is the one nobody likes to say out loud)
Ok, let the comments come and of course Sebastian will have plenty of criticism as well.
