A well-run bug bounty should encourage early reporting of issues. Should he have waited until public release so the impact was bigger?

It's also a way to get an email address that you can retarget ads to.

Have the complete opposite experience here - we (OBS Studio team) often have malware copies of our website set up by scammers, and Namecheap are the most responsive by far at suspending the domains - usually in under an hour (!).

That isn't always the case these days, web apps can run on Cloudflare without an origin.

I've been seeing some cleverly encoded emails with multiple MIME parts that bypass the spam filter. Gmail decodes one representation but displays another. Luckily the content they show to the spam filter is mostly static so a regular f

Why does your API want the full email address? That becomes a privacy liability as surely the domain alone is enough.

For me this is very noticeable whenever I open a new Chrome tab. It takes 3+ seconds for the icons of the recently visited sites to appear, whatever cache is used for the favicons is extremely slow. Thankfully the disk cache for other resou

We have actually just launched a user survey[1] today hoping to get some feedback about how people use OBS, with the goal of improving UX. No telemetry makes it difficult to get an idea of which features users actually use or find important

I tried the top rated Omega 3 from labdoor for 6 months, it's incredibly expensive and I noticed no difference at all from my generic brand. A lot of the lower labdoor scores come from label inaccuracy rather than anything seriously wr

Not necessarily even then. Connecting to a new domain has the overhead of a DNS lookup, TCP connection and TLS handshake before you can even send the request (and be stuck in slow start for the first few RTTs).

Well this is downright scary. Homebrew crypto implementations, what could go wrong... I expect we'll see an exploit to log in with any password soon enough :).

Agreed, and I hope they don't lose too much of that as they continue to grow. My personal experience - I found an issue with a certain DNS query type returning incorrect results and opened a ticket. The first reply was a confirmation o

That "manual verification" back in the day was an email verification link, so again, back to relying on DNS. I don't think there's a way around it, but at least with certificate transparency we'll know if it happens

Wouldn't this have to be constantly transmitting to work? I can't imagine the amount of interference this would create. The lower frequencies are already congested enough...

The choice to use SHA256 is surprising to me given that there are a number of other hash functions such as the BLAKE family that are explicitly designed to have arbitrary output sizes.

The downside of such a setup is that as a user, I now have no idea if the site is actually secure. If the mom-and-pop shop is taking credit card orders and has a secure Cloudflare cert, how do I know they aren't then transmitting my cr

Note that while option 3 will fix this particular issue (because they only seem to care about port 80), it doesn't stop them from MITMing the connection with their own self-signed cert in the future. Only options 4 and 5 ensure a fully

Full isn't actually enough to secure this - with their MITM position, Airtel could send an untrusted certificate and continue to intercept and modify traffic. Full (Strict) is the only safe option.
