@teichopsia Can you show how I can make that work with 3kb rate limit?
like the idea. would be nice to include congress and probably the supreme court as well. likely the best way to get the point across, especially if central sites like google and netflix participated.
great idea.
This is a peaceful protest I can get behind.
@ross I was going to say that might be illegal, but then I realized, it must not be, since this law is up for grabs, and if they are annoyed enough to make it illegal, mission accomplished.
DO. IT.
Any chance of a port to Litespeed???? Please?? Or can this be dumped into litespeed since its "supposed" to be "drop in" for Apache...I've seen the Apache fork... but I found out that my newest box uses Litespeed v. Apache :( :(
Any chance for Litespeed???
Thanks.
For developers on LAMP stacks I offer the following .htaccess rules:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^192\.133\.125\. [OR]
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^165\.135\. [OR]
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^192\.104\.54\. [OR]
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^4\.21\.126\. [OR]
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^65\.125\.25\.(6[4-9]|[7-9]\d|10\d|11\d|12[0-7])$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^208\.23\.64\.(\d|\d\d|11\d|12[0-7])$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-For} ^192\.133\.125\. [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-For} ^165\.135\. [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-For} ^192\.104\.54\. [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-For} ^4\.21\.126\. [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-For} ^65\.125\.25\.(6[4-9]|[7-9]\d|10\d|11\d|12[0-7])$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-For} ^208\.23\.64\.(\d|\d\d|11\d|12[0-7])$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /throttle.php?rate=3000 [L,QSA]
</IfModule>
...where in this example throttle.php is a script that perhaps uses a combination of ob_start(), ob_get_clean() and sleep() to dribble the output. If you use the sleep() approach, be sure to use set_time_limit() to set a long execution time if you don't want PHP to exit at the default 30 seconds.
^Thanks, I am the webmaster for a hosting company and will employ this immediately.
Just to confirm.. aren't these the public IPs for FCC in-bound services and what not? Are FCC employees actually sourcing connections out from behind these IPs (eg, their phone, home, or office connection)?
This would be like throttling the IP(s) for www.google.com to give Google employees a bad time -- right? Does anyone have access logs showing traffic from these IPs?
FYI: FCC has a few more IP addresses than above:
This from ARIN.NET (the people who assign NA IP addresses):
FCC (NET-165-135-0-0-1) 165.135.0.0 - 165.135.255.255
FCCNET2 (NET-192-133-125-0-1) 192.133.125.0 - 192.133.125.255
FCCNET (NET-192-104-54-0-1) 192.104.54.0 - 192.104.54.255
FCC2-126-30 (NET-4-21-126-0-1) 4.21.126.0 - 4.21.126.255
FCC (NET6-2620-610-1) 2620:0:610:: - 2620:0:610:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF
SPRINTLINK (NET-208-23-64-0-1) 208.23.64.0 - 208.23.64.127
TBD (NET6-2600-803-230-1) 2600:803:230:: - 2600:803:230:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF
Q0503-65-125-25-64 (NET-65-125-25-64-1) 65.125.25.64 - 65.125.25.127
SPRINTLINK (NET-208-31-254-128-1) 208.31.254.128 - 208.31.254.255
However - in my 15+ years in telecommunications, it entirely too easy to source from a different subnet not listed here. Unfortunately as xyntrix said, web logs will tell the tale of where the source is coming from.
(my two cents) - while this is a SPECTACULAR idea, it won't last long as subnets and source IP's can be added to their servers and NOT added to the FCC's AS/BGP announcements.
Good luck guys!

No need for mod rewrite and icky php scripts. mod_ratelimit does this. http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_ratelimit.html

Would have been nice if Netflix did this with Comcast customers. Instead of paying Comcast for doing what its customers already pay them for, have them pay to keep their own customers happy. (I realise they couldn't have because monopoly and not wanting to be the bad guy, but still, one can dream...)
There has to be a way to emulate this in JS. Then we could make a Cloudflare app....
for sake of completness, lighttpd version: https://gist.github.com/ft11/34fb1974eb5aff8a36fd
Sorry for the n00b question...
My site is WordPress powered hosted on GoDaddy. Any idea how to implement this? Or if someone can make a plugin like the SOPA blackout one, that would be awesome!
Thank you for this, implementing it directly. Logic will prevail.
I look forward to these ranges being reassigned, then all of you forgetting this shit in your long, crusty configuration file, then spending four days trying to figure out why only $isp customers in $region can't do shit with your site.
Oh wait, if you're sticking this in your config and getting away with it, you don't have a site of note. So, never mind.
(Also, the Apache 12-regexes-per-request to a PHP script that calls sleep() is my personal favorite. In grown-up operations terms, we call that a "DoS vector," being one while(1) away from unresponsive.)
Not tested and could use some improvements. I'll make a better version and post tomorrow.

You need to change the last line for this script to work. header("Location: lemonparty.org || meatspin.cc || someOtherHorribleSite.whatevs"); die(); } ?>

Can't tell if this is a joke or pure idiocy. Also this made me laugh:

@m1 Pay no heed. Apple's employees know everything about everything.
Genius.
FWIW: If you are a MaxCDN customer you can enable this in the CP: http://blog.maxcdn.com/throttle-fcc-fight-net-neutrality/

Brilliant! Implementing this on all of my sites...
Anyone implemented this recently?
Are those IP-ranges still correct?
I only wish we could do this to every computer and device that anyone in management or at any level of decision making beyond peon at the FCC uses. Home, work, mobile, all of it. Then make them paid for tiered speedups. Cost $10 per month per 100Kbps.
