Ooh, good idea. Would probably only have to write ~1 time per day to a separate, parallel list. Or have a small VPS do the work continuously and push changes to a Git repo so others can pull it however often they want. I’d love to take a lo

Disconnect Pro for iOS is also a great tool. Hasn't failed me yet and makes adding custom trackers super easy via the list of recent connections. I blocked 30.8k trackers and saved 3 GB of data last month. :)

This was solved decades ago[0] with the Reply-To header. Send emails from no-reply@paypal.com and set the Reply-To to support@paypal.com. Emails then bounce to no-reply@ and any legitimate email client will auto-populate support@ as the To

MarkMonitor specifically is pretty picky about only taking on large-scale corporations (google.com, amazon.com, microsoft.com to name a few) so just the fact that it's registered there is usually a reliable way to confirm legitimacy, b

Yup, I always, always, always simply check for domain availability via pinging the TLD’s registry directly using the whois command in my terminal. I’ve been burned like this before by checking on another registrar (I forget which so don’t w

Yes, I’d third getting started with Digital Ocean or Linode, but even AWS Lightsail isn’t a terrible option if you want to be able to say you’re dipping your feet into the turbulent Amazon waters.

If running our own gateway server on a cloud provider of our choosing will really be an option, that might sell this for me. Would that remove the yearly $99 requirement? I understand we wouldn’t get support for a lot of the things you hand
