> RIPE Atlas is primarily designed for INTERnet measurements, not Intranet. Emphasize on the "primarily", that doesn't directly mean private measurements shouldn't exist. > If one has a problem with open-data philosophy, he shouldn't participate in this project. The existence of a token system already incentivizes contributing, without just making good public measurements that contribute back open data. > It shouldn't be necessary to run the same measurement multiple times. For what reason? Because things change in the wild? > There's only one exception Well... So in addition to lack of a good basis in principle, non-private measurements might also pose an unnecessary additional information leakage. In addition to that, many measurements are just absolutely useless for others. I am also certain there are people who only contribute (by hosting a probe) for that reason - running a few private measurements. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
