    He leaves behind a great legacy. I can highly recommend Blood Music, Eon, or Forge of God if you have never read one of his books. However, my personal favourite was actually the (…

    Cloudflare caches robots.txt by default when proxied (the only .txt-file that they automatically cache), for all other content the following from their ToS probably applies: > Use …

    GitHub has a soft limit of like 100 GB/month on transfers for Pages. According to the Adguard blog post traffic was already several TBs a day before the issue arose.

    Scanning the LAN through your browser is nothing new. JS-Recon from AnD Labs [0] is a tool from 2010 that could do it. I have seen eBay [1], Facebook [2], and Halifax [3] do it too…

    I think this sounds more like some sort of fingerprinting attempt. It good to see that random access to these kind of resources fails due to new(er) browser controls. However, this…
