If you want something router-like, PC Engines apu1d and apu1d4 at $124 and $145 USD are good options, as is the older (but slower, i386-only) alix2d3 at $103.
There are also plenty of micro ATX or all-in-one fanless PCs with dual-NICs in a similar price range. Or dual-NIC Intel NUCs, as well (not fanless).

Is there any evidence that patent issues are what has kept this idea on the sidelines until now?

they got bitten by a mistake of not doing enough market research
Alternatively, they don't see it as a mistake at all (as you pointed out, a whopping 68 subscribers) and did the math and decided to go with it.

It would be interesting to hear the other side of the story here.

Any evidence or just FUD?

I'm old enough to remember the cold war. One of the big criticisms of Eastern block countries was that the courts were subservient to the government, that the government was not constrained by the law and that trials were secret.
Have we forgotten this already?
Given that our current President wasn't alive for half of it (exclusive of petering out, 1947-1961), that seems pretty likely.

The OP indicated he is colorblind. This very likely isn't the first or the last time he will need to break out the high-contrast option.

That would be reasonable, except that on all my searches that DDG fails on, Google works perfectly fine in private browsing from a different IP.

You want Firefox to emulate Chrome's broken caching?

Could you expand on #60? I find that meetups are a great way to meet enthusiasts in a particular area/field/technology. This is especially the case if you're one of the many people running a successful/growing business that is unlikely to ever make a "tech news" article or be a household (tech) name.

I'm not sure why you feel my post was disingenuous. There are many forms of self-protection that we need to ask our government permissions to obtain.

We have a lot of similar restrictions in US workplaces, mostly driven by unions. They are equally as ridiculous.

When I see stories like this, I'm always impressed at the wide availability of gas masks. Are we even allowed to own those in the States?*
*Yes, I know how sad of a question that is.
