The answer to the second form of the question goes a good way to answering the first. There is no way of knowing the intent of the questioner with this kind of question.

Only answers which are likely to put the site in disrepute or in conflict with the authorities where it is hosted should be removed. Individuals are free to move on to questions they don't have a problem with, or vote down, or to close, questions they don't like the look of.

The same information would be useful in countries wherecircumventing a block might be in place (equally an ISP might accidentally block IPSEC and need guidance for a speedy recovery). Framed badly this question mightcountries that have looked like I was trying to get around somethat sort of security block - but really I am notregulation in place. That kind of question could easily get censored and reduce the value If answers of that kind were to be banned, then this site would cease being useful.
