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

@marcan testing stuff with DRM can be tricky though: https://infosec.place/notice/Ak77QQbjZ0Z52TP6I4 (not saying this as an excuse, but a potential contributing factor)

This seems like a legit analysis of the #CrowdStrike crash woth samples and without politics or conspiracy theories (that appear to be rampant on X...):

The #CrowdStrike thing looks like a major testing fuckup, that shouldn't have happened.

On the other hand we know that relevant .sys artifacts are DRM'd and user-specific.

I wouldn't be surprised if the issue was related to DRM, at least in the sense that full, DRM-enabled end-to-end testing was not implemented and/or some DRM-introduced bug.

"Google is no longer trying to index the entire web. In fact, it's become extremely selective, refusing to index most content. This isn't about content creators failing to meet some arbitrary standard of quality. Rather, it's a fundamental change in how Google approaches its role as a search engine."

This pretty much confirms my previous assessment:
