antitamper

What's to stop someone setting up a honey trap computer all exposed with Microspy Windows running on it, and effectively summoning these guys.

I genuinely am interested in their payloads...

A hipstery part of me wants to register one for the lulz and not renew it. The key point here that the domain will not be renewed because it's another bill i'm hit with each year.

I wish there was some way to get a free domain from Google without resorting to things like Freenom, or other unreliable services.

I've only ever associated WebRTC with its ability to expose the real IP address when surfing with a VPN. I am unsure if this bug is unique to Firefox, and I hope the bug doesn't show up in Safari.

It's like http://someonewhocares.org/hosts/ on steroids.

I always wondered what the web would feel like, in terms of experience, without some manner of filtering. The last time I rode bareback on the internet without ADblockers, or even rudimentary hosts blocking was at an Airport kiosk stand, which even then felt weird, because the New York Times was still only learning about fingerprinting and grabbing what is effectively the Mac address of any machine using Flash.

Google is only a proxy to The Internet, nothing more. There's a bucketload of untapped traffic coming from sources Google could only dream of. I found this out by mistake when I had AWStats running for way longer than it should have, and it hoovered up globs of what we would call 'big data' today.

Some of the referal links are still alive today and funneling terrabytes of metadata through their servers; a practice I thought was more or less frowned upon, but still serving SEOs today. Still so much to tap into, still like 2012 too!

Very much welcomed. Like all protocols, unless they are pushed by industry players, they won't take off in any meaningful way. Take IPV6 for example; out compteted by its predessor IPV4 because swathes of industry players chose not to support it. I hope this is not the case for HTTP/2 as turning it on is trivial these days and more often than not, it's a small flag in a config file and boom, we have HTTP/2.

Just for those using this: this phones home to panthema.net when checking for updates. You might want to forcefully make it phone home, and then create a firewall rule for it.

I inspected the traffic and it's fairly innocuous, but you never really know, unless you compile from source and leave out any third party TCP connections, which I have done.
