Maybe I'll open a ticket under the guise of getting IPv6 setup and see if I can slip it in that I am seeing other people's traffic

I think its more likely they'll just close it as "ipv6 not yet supported" or something to that effect. if you can find the number for the noc or something that would be the way to go.

The private club will feature weekly entertainment from some of the world’s most recognized adult stars including Tasha Reign, Kat Dior, Penthouse Pet of the Year Kenna James, London Keyes, Edyn Blair and many others.

“I know men go to strip clubs to relax and let go. They also go to enjoy attention from women that they don’t normally get in real life and to feel appreciated. I love the idea of tokens for club services because the buyer will most likely spend more than they would with traditional forms of payment,” added Tasha Reign.

I don't know how I can explain the terms Passive Optical Network or Fiber to the Home any better than I already have but you're an idiot. Anyway, the way all PON rollouts work is that there is a single transceiver that blasts downstream traffic for up to 64 subscribers then each has their own ONT box to push their upstream traffic back. Everyone sees the same downstream light to the ONT but the traffic for your box should be wrapped in link encryption so the stuff for other houses is discarded but this is not happening for my ISP so everything not going out over TLS is visible to all the other subscribers on my segment.

its insane that this is even possible. granted I work in mobile where encryption of this kind is a given because everyone's data is constantly beaming through your skull but I can't imagine that happening on our network.

Yeah, even if they weren't doing link encryption I would expect the ONT to be discarding all unicast traffic not destined to it. If they were at least doing that I never would have noticed because I don't have my own single-mode interface to plug in to their line.

There's a good chance that whatever whitebox cheap ONTs they're using don't support encryption. From what I've read in the spec it should be using an AES256 key but who knows if whatever lovely little chip crammed in there can support that at full duplex gigabit

Okay, so I found a spec sheet for this ZTE piece of poo poo and apparently it can't do link encryption but PON networks support UNI/GEM filtering where you assign each device a unique ID and the encapsulation layer knows to discard the frames that aren't destined for it but I guess my ISP just put everybody on the same one so you see other's traffic. Should be trivial for them to at least triage but a proper fix requires them to not buy the cheapest poo poo available from china

e: I guess it also supports filtering based on VLAN tag too. Jesus this is lazy.

ee: And some other conflicting docs say it supports AES128 so I have no idea.

It's possible part of this has gone over my head but from a security perspective isn't ONLY filtering on a unique identifier just as much of a security fuckup? Unless you have each link individually encrypted you're still sending everyone's data to everyone else. It seems to me you have to have both, and the unencrypted identifier is only there so that you don't have to waste time decrypting data that isn't yours.

Sure, except that most home users don't have the ability to capture optical frames, whereas everyone has the ability to capture ethernet frames. But yes, you are correct that the "proper" way to do it would be to encrypt each channel with a unique certificate for the authorized endpoint with some kind of temporal algorithm.

There is something to be said about the technical hurdle for only filtering because it requires uncommon fiber optics that will discourage curious people poking around. It;'s a poo poo control and gives a false sense of security but at least it keeps the traffic off the rj45 port where its completely trivial to see. I 100% agree that encryption is the only correct solution but its unclear if the hardware supports that and if that is the case its going to take a couple years before the ISP replaces these things with ones that support it.

True, even if it was cwdm passively you'd be able to "see" it.

Years ago there was something similar with being able to use a tuner card and a c-band dish. This was when you used a dialup ISP for the upstream. You could spoof traffic so it would get sent over the dish, maybe, but you could run software and absorb files and things that were coming over it.

Different ISP, but I'm guessing most of the fiber rollouts that are happening these days are based on the same ZTE ONTs and could be similarly affected. PON is a good tech but oversubscription is possible. If a segment is getting overloaded they're supposed to split it apart to free up bandwidth and have enough dark fiber on whatever uplink they're using to handle it but if you're cheap then that hits your bottom line. These folks have a policy that it should be hitting at least 500mbit during normal peak hours which is nice, I see 800+ on a regular basis.

Anyway, I had some DM back and forth with them and they said they couldn't reproduce the issue and requested a pcap. They seemed interested in actually fixing it so I gave them some traffic capture from a passive Nic with no IP stack on it and they said they found the problem and fixed it. I'm guessing whatever filtering they were using was failing since it wasn't a high enough volume of traffic that I would expect for it to be everything on my network segment. Maybe a known bug in firmware? Still, if they were doing link encryption those should have been passed as garbled nonsense so there's still a bigger issue to deal with.
