   You are supremely lost. If you carry the analogy, you're saying the billboards destroying my view through Colorado are somehow paying for my roads. Well, actually taxes pay for my roads. And no, viewing ad's on Brave does not some

   It was also a pure accident that I started programming at all. This was 2007, I had inherited an old Windows 95 computer that was recycled from my Mom's law office where she was a paralegal. She let me rig it up in my bedroom as a teen

    This would be really neat. However, it might confuse or complicate some tools output (like netstat) that use the standard 0.0.0.0:80 style listening notation. That is if 0.0.0.0 becomes a valid address.

    AFAIK the Kali kernel is Debian unstable modified to allow wireless tools like aircrack-ng suite to do injection and other fun things. So it's just as insecure as any bleeding edge nix, the risk factor really depends on what packages y
