Just yesterday I witched my office network to IPv6 and one thought kept creeping in regarding security. If I'm on IPv6 there is no NAT and it's basically security by obscurity (not really but port scans would take forever) What if

Funnily enough that was the route I was initially going to go but I got scared because I read that the project is a violation of the ToS and your number _might_ get blocked if you use these third party clients. That's why I wrote the a

It's really incredible what it can do. I once used it to demo a vulnerability on a client's website using NodeRed that I could trigger from my phone. Basically I made NodeRed spit out a JS file which I enbedded on their site using

Wow that sucks. It's not just HTML Cleaners though. A few years ago (before snowden) I analyzed free proxy servers and found that most of them blocked https and many even injected JS or HTML into all requests [1]. I also wrote a tutor

oh god I fell in love with everthing related to Alpine Linux. Found out about it when I started playing around with docker but then ported all my home servers and Raspberry Pis to Alpine. It's so damn small and has little overhead. Nee
