You are probably looking for the infosec.exchange Mastodon instance
This host is mostly for my random stuff, and in little part acts like a well-intentioned placeholder for the typosquatted domain.
Discoverability and Archiving
Currently I'm using this host for saving the items from my own feeds to the Wayback Machine and provide in-links for search engines. I hate that I have to do this, but the non-sense ideology of Mastodon pretty much ruined the search feature for Fediverse as a whole, and this wasn't changed by the fact that they owned their mistake and implemented search eventually.
Yes, I (or anyone else) could do similar things with other peoples published feeds, regardless of the tantrum. No, you can't defederate this, because the process doesn't rely on an instance.
Gluttony Section for Search Engines
@algernon I'm wondering if it'd be more effective (in terms of impact/service cost) to serve finite trees that update periodically, like a real web site? I guess this way you could make the bot come back (poison it for a longer time) and constrain the expected bandwidth per visit?
@nuintari This is not only true for Fortinet. What we can see here is a serious market failure that's been building up for a long while and probably won't go away anytime soon.
@jerry @gangrif @johntimaeus "so the decryption of the private key and mail files happens on your own computer (or in your browser). " - this a periodic reminder that browser-based clients download the code required to "securely" handle the user keys from the same entity (in this case Proton) that we want to hide the keys from...
@freddy I'm doing a pet project now primarily for learning, and doing things "the rusty way" proved to be enlightening so far. If I wanted to get shit done I would've just done it in Python and be done with it 2 hours ago :D
Borrow checking in Rust is basically the world's most complex hot-potato game.
@freddy @osman @shortridge I don't think that approach would work because begbounty ppl just register new accounts every hour, you can't tie them to a persona.
Due to the scale of the problem I think it's more useful to use statistics rather than individual examples, and BB platforms do keep track of accepted/rejected numbers (I'm not sure how much of that is public though).
