The article is about the ban on differential privacy and other modern privacy techniques in use with the census and similar, not social media.

Warning: this is AI generated. Don't actually trust it to be secure.

Of course there's AI in the mix, it's 2026. Are there specific issues you can point out, or are you just casting aspersions?

Thanks mate... That's exactly why it's open source, merges welcome. If somebody finds a problem they can fix it and take credit.

Well the ai part implies it's trash

But does it work? Does it do what's claimed on the box?

Yes, for the most part. P2P networks are hard... Merges and improvements are welcome.

Huh? I'm pretty sure I'm a person. But AI would say that too...

I was (obviously) referring to the project that you linked to, not saying you are a bot. Github contributors page shows the whole thing was vibe coded: https://github.com/aosmith/cipher/graphs/contributors

You're right and I'm generally not a fan of vibe coding but I'm not trying to make money and it's free YMMV.

You didn't even bother to check if there's any relevance to the article before posting your vibe-coded project.

bogwog is saying that your site/product is obviously vibecoded based off of the frontend

Got it thanks

How does it handle NAT traversal?

Multiple ways, some from the bittorrent / limewire days, some using public stun / turn servers.
