And if you are that concerned about this type of attack, it may be worth your time to simply start a new Fossil repository using the sha3-only hash policy (writing a script to replay commits into the new repo, so you don't lose history

An edge case I come across quite a lot: entering a long, random password into a new device (where copy-paste is never available). I just got a new TV and wanted to sign into my Amazon Prime account. Unfortunately for me, that meant I had to

Great article, but I'm not sure it's a good idea to segment your Docker images by environment. Part of Docker's appeal is that you can be sure your staging & production containers are bit-for-bit the same. I use a workflo

Is #2 even possible? Which phone providers accept prepaid cards and no way to verify the user's identity? For #7, make sure you do VPN over Tor, not Tor over VPN. The former is more secure for you, and has the additional benefit that

Sorry I caught this so late, but no, ISPs do not have to use language like this to protect themselves. They can also provide the bandwidth the customer is paying for 100% of the time (or give the customer's money back), like my company
