    Note my bias as I work for Big VPN (Tailscale), but I don’t think that teaching people to ignore security warnings is a good thing to do. The CA system is kind of a scam in general, but I think that at least in its current implementation it’s better for us to encourage people are aware of those errors and what they mean.

    As the sacred texts say: self-signed certificates beget the use of curl -k beget the use of self-signed certificates.





  • Generally when you download files over torrent through your ISP, you end up getting love letters from rightsholders. I personally use a homelab NAS as my seedbox and for my public tracker stuff (as well as anime downloads over XDCC) I use Mullvad. I don’t seed overly much on public trackers because of it, but my ratio on private trackers is sky high because ISPs won’t send love letters for private trackers.
