    I think that could be solved by having a button to mark something as watched, removing it from recommendations and the catalog other than the list of things you watched. You could …

    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…

    Not necessarily, think CDNs or Shared IPs for Webspaces.

    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 …

    It appears to be brighter because LED parts occupy a different spectrum. Sodium lamps only light up in a very narrow orange spectrum of light (you can't even tell colors under sodi…

    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…

    I have no problem with the former but they do have incentive for the later as not delivering the abuse reports will lead to the domain being decommissioned because it's on every sp…

    Well, even an UG (Hb) needs a business address which you will have to put in the imprint and to my knowledge you can't put a PO box as business address in the register.

    There is no reason that domain providers will be incapable of providing a contact point and you were always able to put a separate email inbox on WHOIS. But there is no need for a …

    A postal box/postfach is not sufficient and that will definitely earn you a C&D. Don't do that. (21. Juli 2016, Az. 1 HK O 168/16 for reference). The imprint requires an address th…

    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…

    Not all EU countries require that or have different rules around it (in germany only business-like websites require the imprint)

    Not even close. Coastal regions, yes. But go out of costal regions or below a kilometer of depth and it gets awfully spotty.

    Travel warnings can only be issued by a government agency. Same goes for travel alerts and advisories. Calling this a travel warning is simply wrong.

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