Just to see what happens, it might be cool to find a way to safely (as in without compromising your local network) provide root read, write and execute access to the whole anonymous, public internet while still being able to fully inspect everything that people (and bots) do. Maybe you can set an "intranet" of virtual machines to also see how people/bots move around the network. Kind of like:

- jolmg 7y agoHa. Would people really do that? I honestly don't know what to expect. Maybe bitcoin mining? Anyway, if we're talking about fun, I can't think of anything more exciting than seeing what happens in this scenario. I imagine the way you expose it makes a difference, too, in what kind of people you attract.
- snazz 7y agoI don’t think you need to expose it—a root account with “password” as the password and open SSH on port 22 would do the trick.
