I thought it was self evident and desirable that relays censor notes. Else how could curate out what you don’t want. (Porn, etc)

I had always assumed relays needed reputations of a kind.

I’d rather go with custom initramfs plus zfsbootmenu.

Can make it even a bit better by only letting ssh listen on a wireguard tunnel.

Search static vs dynamic linking.

tl;dr it depends on the language.

Python, Java Script, are dynamically linked.

Golang and some others are statically linked.

C, C++ no simply answer, goes both ways.

How would this help? The problem is not Apple the problem is apps that don’t E2E encrypt their push notification payload.

fyi - Google has the same problem, they just didn’t admit it once they were free to like Apple did.

This is conceptually exactly what Apple Private Relay does. But Apple only does it for select Apps at TCP and UDP layer. This is IP layer.

Apple Relay has some benefits. One example is b/c Apple will not allow IP location spoofing they get blocked a lot less.

I like Apple Private Relay but am definitely looking forward to a generalized solution like this.

bahh. IPv6 is horribly over engineered. It’s like the ISIS gal and telco guys went to town.

It’s not even really IP. If it was they would have bumped the verizon field to 6. nope. Whole different ethertype.

This really is crazy good.

I was kinda of skeptical about no IDs as a user experience. But once you think about decoupling user IDs from pairwise communication channels underneath, the possibilities are endless.


Everything you get from blinded emails and more. You could even make a bridge from an email domain and get exactly that.

Please start thinking about ID layers on top.

wow. now this sounds like progress!! As much as rec.gov app doesn’t suck for a gov app it still takes LOTS of time to plan.
