I’m not sure anyone shares the same glee I feel when I view all the blocked IPs scrolling by in my pFsense firewall. Suricata does a lot of heavy lifting for sure.

What’s your selfhosting guilty pleasure or pleasures?

    I get a good deal of satisfaction seeing my aliases of blocked connections.
    Not really a guilty pleasure though.
    Do you feel guilty if I’d asked you about that?

      Yeah I probably would because I spend a lot of time watching it, blocking new threats and unwanted guests. My goal is to achieve the cleanest stream possible.

        Good luck on achieving that.
        You’ll be more successfull in whitelisting every possible vconnection instead ;)

        Spend some time (IMO too much) mysealf researching ASNs and publicly accessible blocklists of datacenters/crawlers.
        Not as easy task.
