Re: FFS!
What's a server and what's a client? The actual point of the article was that the v4 net as it's evolved forces us into that kind of working, whereas a lot of useful stuff could be done peer-to-peer with symmetric connection establishment protocols if only the network would allow it. And you set up the security to be appropriate for the kind of service you want. That a lot of net traffic is actually client to server, with browser traffic the canonical example, is really a non-sequitur. The network shouldn't force that paradigm.
