You're conflating privacy with trust. DNSSEC gives you trust, the VPN gives you "last mile" privacy. DoH is only designed for last mile so useless in encrypting the resolver chain between you and the root servers. Currently t

Except, not really. If you're worried about DNS tampering, DNSSEC already exists all the way up to the root servers. If you're worried about ISPs snooping on what sites you visit, they'll continue to be able to do this even w

If you're worried about your ISP snooping on you and tampering with DNS records, the tools we have today already offer better privacy and trust than DoH, DoT, DNSCurve or DNSCrypt. Just use a DNSSEC capable resolver in combination with

Frankly, if your ISP is that aggressive, your best bet is a VPN. DoT and DoH will always offer imperfect privacy even with widespread ESNI.

The discussion should be around improved UX/UI and better protocols rather than treating people like idiots and abusing your power to unilaterally force behaviour changes on web content providers and consumers. The more I think about i

Isn't it the opposite? With DoH, ISPs now have another incentive not to boost IPv6 adoption.

Kind of sad when you need a private company to give your citizens the basic privacy they want (doubly so when you have to simply trust said company that the partners they are working with are honest). Maybe the US's privacy laws need a

I'm getting pretty pissed off the with the arrogance of US internet tech companies sidestepping formal protocol design & industry adoption because it isn't moving "fast enough" for them. Without ESNI, DoH is essentia

Can't imagine that will last for long. Otherwise what stops Telcos/ISPs blocking this in their resolvers.

So all DoH does (once ESNI is eventually a thing) is alter this equation. ISPs will simply begin correlating IPs (and CT logs: http://blog.seanmcelroy.com/2019/01/05/ocsp-web-activity-is-... ) instead.

Not really. It's an argument for the industry moving to something sensible; not "split braining" low level infrastructure by shoehorning some of it into HTTP, apps and a handful of centralised coporations who claim to play a

I'd strongly recommend having two: Nationwide as your base and a challenger for international wires/multi currency (I use revolut but there are lots of others).

Yeah but unlike a mortgage (secured against one static asset i.e. a house), the article assumes most of this debt will be issued against the strength and quality of a company's various recurring revenue streams (even speculating that d

Can't find it now but I remember reading about a recently launched Seedcamp or Point Nine portfolio company that is doing this for B2C SaaS companies I think. You let them plug into your stripe metrics etc. and they then give you debt

Speaking of rebinding attacks... does anyone know why cloudflare's 1.1.1.1 resolver doesn't enforce this? It's the only "big" public one I know of that happily resolves RFC1918 IPs.

I really wish Intel or MS or someone would fund D so it could give Go and Rust a run for their money. It's as fast (or faster), expressive, powerful and, subjectively, easier to pick up and code in than Rust. It just needs some backers

Prior to SEPA becoming prevalent, I've witnessed it done with an id and credit check together with a decent sized deposit via debit/credit card (~€10K). Balance wired using SWIFT or TARGET2 within 72 hours of driving away. You hav

I think you've misunderstood my comment. LDAP gives you an extremely well supported back end from which to easily extend to virtually any form of authZ, including oauth.

Another solution is OpenLDAP (or JumpCloud) at the root and then supporting software: OpenLDAP ├── PrivacyIDEA (TOTP/MFA with LDAP auth backend) ├──---└── SAML iDp (e.g. SimpleSAMLphp or Shibboleth) for SSO: AWS, Google,

Nice find. archive.is stopped working for me recently and I just assumed it had disappeared. Now I know its because I happened to change my router's resolver from 8.8.8.8 to 1.1.1.1. Edit: Would be cool if archive.is implemented this c

They used to be very good if you wanted a non-scammy registrar with a huge selection of TLDs and ccTLDs. However, in recent years, success seems to have gone to their head and the service is nothing like it used to be (plus their latest con
