@GHOST thanks for your articles about DNS. In case you're familiar, I wonder what your thoughts are on the Cloudflare DNS hosted as a Tor hidden service. The only disadvantages I notice are it's slow and still considered experimental. Works with socat + coredns for example, gives the expected result on `https://www.browserscan.net`: ``` sudo -u nobody socat 'TCP4-LISTEN:5353,bind=127.0.0.1,reuseaddr,fork' 'SOCKS4A:127.0.0.1:dns4torpnlfs2ifuz2s2yf3fc7rdmsbhm6rw75euj35pac6ap25zgqad.onion:53,socksport=9050' ``` ``` . { loop bind 127.0.0.1 ::1 cache 600 forward . dns://127.0.0.1:5353 { force_tcp } } ``` BTW I found unbound to be buggy: forwarding the TCP-only DNS doesn't work for me, for example; I also see a lot of semi-abandoned scary issues/PRs on GitHub (use after free, crashes, race conditions, etc.). #dns #privacy #security

Брр. Давненько я изолировал себя от рекомендательных систем YouTube, в том числе заблокировав похожие видео в Invidious. Заглянул что творится в русскоязычном секторе — какой-то жуткий псиоп там: куча каналов с AI-слопом (лишь некоторые из них напрямую это указывают в описании), которые имитируют голос (пока еще без видео) Татьяны Черниговской. Контент на произвольные темы саморазвития, который, в том числе, ссылается на реальных (а также, возможно, и вымышленных) исследователей. Будьте бдительны, нам хватает сегодняшнего плохого состояния науки и без этого. #rustr #психология #нейронауки image

@Final @GrapheneOS I'm curious, are you possibly concerned that people will abuse a weaker duress PIN option in more serious scenarios? I see people have been asking for something like that, and as I thought it's hard to properly implement: logs in particular will signify the fact that some data was removed. Which I personally don't request at all; I'm interested in an option useful for dumb scenarios, where corrupt officer is too limited to perform such analysis: they just have nothing, no cables, no computers; only some naive desperate interest in finding drug pictures in DMs and gallery or something; unfortunately popular annoying scenario in some countries. I think a proper option with a bold warning text about limitations (and that this will be damaging to use on borders in particular, etc.) would still be useful and even life saving (in non-Western countries in particular). What do you think? View quoted note →
