Interesting stuff! It's a little odd that gzip itself won't display (or sometimes even write) these values. Another tool that displays some of these values is file(1), at least with Debian's libmagic-mgc, for example: gzi

.online is one of the many TLDs that charge a dollar for registration but bump the price to $30-$35 for renewal. So far, this seems like a good signal to tell apart serious TLDs and ones just preying on customers who sort by cheapest (or ca

The ISPs simply don't care, I think. I have several million unique botnet IPs hitting my server, and I'm not sure how I could let the ISPs or users know they're infected - I contacted those that originated from my country, bu

The website is pure slop with an infinitely low information to noise ratio. Judging by their documentation[0] it's just access control for web servers, so the better question would be how it compares to TLS client auth (which uses prop

From what I've gathered, they've decided to make this completely unusable without a Google- or Apple-approved smartphone. Horrible! Are individual banks even allowed to make that an option for clients? Though even if they are, I d
