Every single remote site we have is managed via a VPN connection. The VPN endpoints are mostly the site's firewall but you could just as easily manage the router from a TeamViewer (LOL) connection into a system behind it. > The only

The load times are most likely primarily caused either by slow JS or high RTT/multiple requests, either of which could be trivially bypassed by an attacker. Or an attacker could just fire off 100 requests at the same time and saturate

Sadly, Shodan does not appear to index these, seemingly because it attempts an HTTP connection, while the router expects an HTTPS connection. Edit: I take it back. Looks like the hash is good enough. 47,000 results; the first three that res

No, colonizing a new continent was not "easy". It, too, was a constant struggle for survival. New pests, new climate, new soil, new flora and fauna, communication (or battle) with natives, etc.

This is , effectively, displaying a cryptographic hash. But hashes are long and filled with lots of the same thing, so some software [also] turns them into other things, like "random art" or using a word list to turn a hash into

The chaotic algorithm is meant to be the hash, not the art-ification. So of course if you take two very similar hashes they will appear very similar.

The major expense for deliveries is the man-hours needed, NOT the truck (or drone). You also get time savings from traveling in a straight line between point A and point B.

The commerce clause is not worded expansively. The supreme court over the last ~century has expanded it expansively. As far as the right to privacy, see the 9th amendment.
