And the above post is downvoted to -2 for which precise reasons?! Does anyone really disagree that documentation at DO is total crap?! If it wasn't total crap, why would their employees link (on social media) to the upstream www.freebs

It's kind of ironic that they list FreeBSD's excellent documentation as one of the reasons for consideration, especially considering that their own documentation is so bad! I mean, what kind of company links directly to blog entri

Do they support IPv6? The IPv6 link from their list of features page just links to their blog entry about Singapore. What kind of IPv6 allocation do they provide?

I think HTTP/2 should have opportunistic encryption support, as per https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/ietf-http-wg/2015JanMar... . As things stand, HTTP/2 is not done in compliance with RFC 7258 &

A very well written rant. HTTP is supposed to have had opportunistic encryption, as per RFC 7258 (Pervasive Monitoring Is an Attack, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7963228 ), but it looks like the corporate overlords d

Crowdfunding is by far not the worst offender in all of these fees. What about event tickets? Even http://www.dnalounge.com/ charges outrageous "service" fees when buying tickets online. For NYE, the ticket pric

Some context here: this is for Belkin / Linksys WRT1900AC, which was released as a premium open-source router, with OpenWRT support, now close to about a year ago… Except it actually wasn’t open-source and didn't have OpenWRT supp

This is a great idea! They've invested $$$ into their network. Why not sell the extra capacity for some extra price? Not like AT&T, which has had BPON since ages ago, yet they've never provisioned any of it with anything rem

Well, so far -- this is only a client, so, it's not really much of a unique replacement of anything just yet. Apart from OpenBSD's ntpd (OpenNTPD) -- http://bxr.su/OpenBSD/usr.sbin/ntpd/ -- which is

So, looking at their screenshots... How about prefixing the non-secure URLs by " http://" , so that, you know, people will be sufficiently warned that it's not " https://" ?

1) Why not implement passive encryption? Like StartTLS in SMTP? No need for HTTPS; could be part of HTTP/2 over port 80. 2) Pinning? 3) No, let's not do that. I want to be able to access my sites from my 2-year old devices that

Doesn't really have to be expensive; OpenBSD's hostapd can do this easily; take a look at `deauth` and `hopping` keywords at http://mdoc.su/o/hostapd.conf.5 . Likewise, it's probably trivial to ignore the

Often only the downstream is shaped; if you have lots of p2p, you might want to ensure they do traffic shaping for upstream, too. Where's your hotel? How'd you manage to get 100Mbit uplink? :-) Most hotels I've stayed at ha
