Global CDN with a fixed monthly cost and a capped bandwidth. For example, pay 100$/month and get up to 1Gb/s, traffic above this limit is dropped. Providers today offer uncapped bandwidth, some, like Amazon, without any cost cap,

If the attacker fully controls the decoding JavaScript, I don't get why the exploit is encoded in the banner and not directly included in JavaScript?

The argument that the only advantage of Electron is cross platform portability is not true. Electron tries to duplicate what is already a main stream approach for deploying backend services. The only reliable and sane way do have a stable b

Great to hear that you continue to iterate on Persona idea. It is a little pity that Portier wasn't announced earlier, preferably together with Persona shutdown decision. Many sites that are using Persona already migrated login flows a

I was considering Aeron but I've read reviews that its adjustments are not very flexible, especially taller people were complaining that is is hard for them to adjust Aeron in a way that the chair is comfortable. Aeron has larger size,

Do you know that they use Emscripten? SketchUp is using Ruby, so it may well be a rewrite in JS.

For both Google and Amazon the cheapest transfer you can have is 0.02 USD/GB, which in case of such attach gives 5.5k USD / hour, or 400k USD for three days of the attack.

In this case such prove should be possible. Files creation dates would show that the files were downloaded when the teacher was absent. The dates would make it easy to associate this accident with your class and then, after asking a few que

Another idea: if a new submission (but not older than some threshold, maybe 24h?) did not reach the front page, each up-vote resets the submission time. Now if a story is noticed and upvoted when it is already reaching the bottom of the &#

You can store it gziped on your disks, just add 'Content-Encoding' and 'Content-Type' headers while returning it and remove .zip extension.

Nice UI and nicely formatted output. Why does it return .zip that needs to be unpacked? To save bandwidth your could just use gzip 'Content-Encoding' end return the format requested by the user, which would be unpacked by the brow

You can't point DNS to any bucket, the bucket name must match the domain name.

Amazon S3 has similar problems. To host static website you need use your domain name as the S3 bucket name. Amazon does not verify ownership of your domain, and bucket names use global namespace. Someone can easily block you from using S3 s

It seems that this can be used to easily disallow hotlinking of content. It should be enough for a content hosting site to set any cookie (doesn't need to be a secret cookie) with the Same-site parameter and drop all requests without

Get content is protected, but error status is not. For example a site can check if an image that is shown only to logged users of some other site loads successfully (this leaks if a user is logged).
