Network engineers have been talking about this weakness in the Internet infrastructure for a decade. Now a fix is finally on the way."

Hey, you have to wait until it's implemented. Right now, the fix is due in Jan, and we have to wait until Jan writes down the code and gets it working right. Once it's working right, we're OK and we can thank Jan.
