Sure! Elixir's been great. Phoenix is a joy to work with, and many of the concurrency primitives built into OTP make it the perfect foundation for a product like this. And rustler makes it super easy to add low-level / native code

We don't actively block any functionality when a user blocks telemetry -- that's definitely an unintended side effect and bug. You'll have more luck disabling telemetry in the config file with `default['firezone'][&

Hi everyone! Firezone CEO here. Someone just clued me into this thread. Unfortunately I’m in and out of Internet service today but I’ll do my best to answer questions. As noted by others, Firezone isn’t really aiming to be a mesh networking

That's funny -- I originally started building Firezone for OpenBSD but at that time wireguard-go was the only way to have WireGuard on *BSD so I decided to tackle Linux first. Firezone is Docker-free and the firewall management applica

Yeah that was one motivation behind it -- to provide some rudimentary controls to filter outbound traffic through the VPN server. The egress firewall will also be useful for upcoming 2FA features -- we can block traffic destined to the Inte

Right now it's just an egress firewall. It bundles the "nft" userspace utility and creates its own isolated nftables table to block traffic in the forward chain. See here for details: https://github.com/firezo

Author here! I created Firezone to make it easier to host and manage your own WireGuard VPN server. While working at Cisco as a security automation engineer I experienced a lot of unnecessary pain managing secure network-level access into o

Nice work! Congrats on hitting the app store. I’m excited to use this for our next hours-long jam session. How does the instrument detection work? Does it do anything else besides change the icon for a tape? It would be so cool to just show

An indicator light is good and well but, you kinda have to be present to monitor it in order to stop it. Someone can record all the video they want if you’re not around to notice. And that still leaves the possibility for it to snap a photo
