This is a generalized problem existing since the packet advent.
Maiko is one exception since he accepts to ear the instances of
of hamradio people.
But the above difficulties existed and exists today also among
all of us :(

Given that W0RLI was a great scientist on the matter he had his
maniacal ideas about the use of radio waves to transit packet.
Then, he was one that doesn't accept any message conversation
with no one; I and others experienced this fact.
As per my experience the budlisting existed a lot also when we
connected at 1k2 bds, and specially for me, the internet means
was a very big liberation.
For our Country regulation (dated 2003) the radio amateurs can
connect the *public networks* on emergencies or in the normal
completion of amateur radio activities, so no problems at all,
here :)
