If you want a layer 2 mesh (like a switch over Wifi) use batman-adv and 802.11s - This works fine even on a 10$ TP-Link 841N. You likely want to have a model with 8mb flash and 64mb memory - otherwise there is not much stuff for other packa

From a hosting perspective you want to isolate Wordpress as much as possible - i.e. putting it in a namespace with php-fpm (easiert way is using firejail) and running PHP as a seperate user. You also want to only give it the minimal require

No, you've got German public broadcasting totally wrong. NDR is not related to the government in any way. It's not even funded by taxes but they have their own agency for that in order to not meddle with political influence. They

In Germany, while the use of the data was still uncertain, they implemented a possibility to pay back taxes and some fee if you self-indict your tax avoidance and you would have been out of trouble. This was pretty popular and gained more m

Tricky, depending on the volume you run into problems if you forward the mails. What works pretty nice and what I'm doing is let gmail fetch the mails via POP3 and configure it to send outgoing mail via the SMTP Server from the domain.

Pure speculation but you can get and click a VPS/dedicated server with a 1Gbit/s pipe almost everywhere. Most of these machines are not regularly patched and run often vulnerable PHP software. I guess if you have a few 0-days for
