I don't think encryption hinders the true ideas of the web, it merely blocks malicious actors, of which there are many in almost all areas and connections. The entire set of encryp…

The resolver is less of an issue because you have free choices there, ISP is harder to change. Plus you increase the number of parties that need to collude (ISP + RR provider) to s…

This is sorta it. SNI is the only unecrypted part that leaks the server hostname. CN/SAN blocking usually has a middlebox that decrypts the connections so there is nothing to be do…

This is amazing work, can't wait for this to be finished and deployed on the internet. Together with encrypted DNS (DoT and DoH) we finally get fully confidential connections to a …

Contractual relationships have limited conditions under which they can be terminated. If you die, your heirs (or in this case parents) can inherit the contract and continue it. Add…

Witnesses can be raided under german law, there are some reasons for it, esp. when it's suspected the witness is hiding evidence. However, the raid is still out of bounds in certai…

I'm using protonmail via CC, don't see the problem tbh. Security and privacy aren't binary options, it's a multi-dimensional spectrum where the optimal point depends on your threat…

And then what is the problem with continuing this but reinforcing this business structure? Because shitty registrars could now be more shitty? Honest and good registrars don't have…

You cannot learn to make a secure lock if you don't know how to pick a lock. Similarly, you can't build a secure system if you don't know how you'd crack a secure system. Of course…

What if something else happens during that time? 1k$ surplus income per month on a 18k$ bill means you'd have to forfeit all surplus income for 18 months. If any other medical emer…

That's not an official travel warning. It's just a blogpost where the title contains "Travel warning"
