Can Someone Make a Porno Called "Deep Packet Inspection"?

I am getting waaay too media geek here, but I just want to say that whoever invented the phrase "deep packet inspection" has given we public interest/net neutrality peeps a great organizing tool. All you have to do is say it a couple of times and someone in the room starts giggling, and then asks you what a packet is.

The only other thing I want to say today was how ironic it is that the Internet, possibly the greatest democratizing force in thousands of years of human history, was invented by the U.S. Department of Defense.

That's something to smile about.
