The linux RPM world has "delta RPMs" which lets you ship much smaller packages when updating. I don't see any blocker to delivering these through a CDN. Not sure if this is quite what you were asking.

Turns out that it knocks around enough and ends up about as good as varying the amount. Lego pieces work too if you want a more lightweight solution.

Not sure what you mean by in play. Dual EC DRBG was widely discredited in 2013/2014; it's not part of the gamut of viable cryptographic tools anymore. Anyone still using it today is hopelessly out of date, but that's a differ

It doesn't matter if they would complain, I just said they'd be confused. Why add a potential sticking point? It sounds like OP is trying to sell a new product, playing pricing games at these early stages is a big distraction. Som

So is privacy at last becoming mainstream? I look forward to the end of people saying "nobody cares about privacy".

So it's like curating your own spam email blocklist?

Would that meaningfully reduce bloat?

Hmmmmm, the spam list downside is a non starter for me. It sounds like you've invented a captcha for email. If that ever took off and became widely used, it would be rather easy for the spammers to write a script to comply with the sch

Hmm that's surprisingly within reach. I bet you could crowd-source that kind of verification with BOINC.

matt4077 might be right actually; those who choose to pay to avoid ads are probably not broke and thus more valuable ad targets, so (some?) content creators will get greedy and double-dip by producing content steeped in product placements o

Exhaustive search is untenable for the 64-bit case. Any strategy here? Testing 2^40 bits might be tenable; any way to select which ones would have the best ROI?

You're not wrong, but some users would be happy to buy their way out of the "advertising experience" for a few cents.

I dunno, I wouldn't set foot in such a place. It seems to me that this idea is a race to the bottom. If people continue to give up first level information (name, address, etc) it devalues it because that info becomes commonplace and wi

So your system automatically sends back messages to the non-whitelisted addresses. Those messages will eventually be classified as spam by big operators such as gmail. How do you prevent that from reducing your "email reputation"
