This is a good list, but consider many items on that list that requires unencrypted traffic, those stillare usefull at the momemt but with https/http2 and DNScrypt lots of debugging tools that got me interested in the intersection of networking and applications are useless.
It's hard to keep up with the current way to decrypt applications specific traffic, unless that is your job, and I do not think this is going to get much easier for amatuers anytime soon.
- bjpbakker 9y ago> many items on that list that requires unencrypted traffic, those stillare usefull at the momemt but with https/http2 TLS is an encryption layer around the protocol (whether HTTP, IMAP, SMTP, etc). It's still very useful (necessary IMO) to understand the protocol to build an application on top of it. Whether or not traffic is tunneled through TLS in production (and it should :)).
- emj 9y agoYes, but the tools become TLS inspection tools instead of general protocol inspection tools.
