🔥 Italy's @AGCOMunica consults on expanding telco regulations to #CDNs. Konstantinos Komaitis warns about “regulatory overreach” to “appease telcos”, setting a bad precedent for the #DigitalNetworksAct debate

Cloudflare’s trusted developer platforms, Cloudflare Pages and Cloudflare Workers, have become powerful tools for cybercriminals running large-scale phishing campaigns and sophisticated attacks. #cloudflare #cybersecurity #phishing #web #cdns

To get away from CAs (#certificateAuthorities) i think web servers and sites ought have a list of other sites that they can vouch for, to bujild a Web Of Vouched Encryption And Names (WOVEAN), and then ppl can, as they type a name, see their WOVEAN address book in real time and see the sites that were used to vouch for the name and public key.

So if my website links to a page then the public key of the site, in beech32 format (the format used by i2p) goes into a list for vouching. The more I use links to a site the stronger the "vouch" for that site.

i suspect that every site will have on average 200-400 sites that they'd vouch for, with 150 of those being strong "vouches" but a fediverse server might end up with tens of thousands of weak "vouches". A fedizen who wants to visit postal.com might just be able to ask and fediserver for all names that start with "po".... if that would result in too big a list then the fediserver can refuse and the fedizen can ask for all results starting with "pos", an extra letter etc. this continues until a mapping of names to B32s can be provided.

this sort of thing might work as part of an addon that i've been proposing to help fedizens crowd serve fediverse media over i2p. Media that they as INDIVIDUALS like and share, or (for improved #search) an INDIVIDUAL FEDIZEN might even share all posts that they can see, which use a #hashtag that they as an INDIVIDUAL have used. This proposed addon i have previously called #DCN (DeCentralized Network), which is ITSELF a tongue-in-cheek rebuttal of the oft-centralized #CDNs.

i2p has a weird and annoying quirk that has made it technically totally possible for the #nameservers to claim a "subdomain" of a site, eg. betty in betty.postal.i2p belongs to a completely different entity to postal.i2p.... but for what i propose, if a browser WANTS to know what the B32 of betty.postal.i2p is then it would HAVE to ask postal.i2p. and it should be possible for a subdomain to have the same public key as the toplevel domain (currently i2p address books dont allow this, which is sort of dumb to me).

really this system could work like the pet naming scheme from @cwebber et al

does this sound compelling? really I don't think i'm outlining anything new here, ive just come up with an acronym, WOVEAN, which might help make the concept more palatable to the average non-techie,,,,

Eg. "Is your site #wovean?"

and i'm combining this with an addon proposal with overlapping functions.

a negative is it may add to the amount of responsibility that webmasters/servers have, but not for i2p natives, as most people who share links in i2p will often share them alongside the b32 link. We WILL however want the webserver to be able to detect when it is sharing a WOVEAN link, so that it might AUTOMATICALLY(?) go into the sites address list? The browser addon would detect that a site is WOVEAN from info in the html head, and ask the viewer if they would like to "Fetch the WOVEAN addresses"?

(If you dont interact I'll recommend to folks not to tag you, in subsequent resposes.)

A question please - what would be a suitable non-gender specific acronym to describe Clothes Dominant naked submissive scene?

We have #CMnf for male Doms/female subs and #CFnm for female Dommes/male subs but what is the best way to describe those Ds partnerships where perhaps one or both don't identify as male or female?

Would #CDns fit? Trying to describe an event in an inclusive manner so help appreciated. Thank you!

How CDNs Enhance SEO: Understanding Component Server Interactions

This guide delves into the intricate relationship between a CDN (Content Delivery Network) and your web server, revealing how this third-party component boosts SEO performance. Discover how caching, proximity, and load balancing impact your site's ranking and user experience.
Let's break down how a component server (like a third-party CDN) interacts with your web server in the context of #seo

@anildash

My opinion is #bandwidth is still a limiting hurdle for #podcast creators, and people with #privacy concerns.

To explain: almost no podcasts host their content. Bandwidth (and storage) cost $$$. $(3rd party #CDNs and podcast hosting svcs) < $(commercial hosting) < $(than server hosting). But all seem part of #SurveillanceCapitalism.

#Peertube, #Funkwhale could reduce cost/increase findability, but painful. #InterPlanetaryFileSystem (#IPFS) might be best.

@kirtai @landley And it's not as if this problem is completely new or hasn't been solved a thousand times just in the last two decades alone...

Like it's not as if Amazon doesn't literally operate one of the biggest #CDNs in the world nor doesn't know how to resume file transfers on #HTTPS (if we assume they are too lazy / incompetent / paranoid to use #IPFS and/or #BitTorrent and/or do(n't) have the files fully encrypted!)...

They decided to "#wontfix" this issue even if it hurts their users!

> Unsafe

The most unsafe part about #fediverse is master-don dominates with its #antiFeatures.

M'don is not much decentralised as many assume (see #CDNs). We just had a little rant about it.

We cannot protect fedizens, without protecting instances themselves. Adoption of I2P and/or at least proposals like #GlutPlug to help decentralise #contentDelivery will protect instances, but such discussions are nowhere.

Case in point, even slow-moving #bitcoin has #I2P support now.

#privacy

It seems @Mastodon is recreating legacy #socialMedia with a "#decentralisation ability". The #Fediverse being a vehicle on which to test it.

Decentralisation in M'don is often a smokescreen. The use of #CDNs is rife. Something like #GlutPlug/#I2PFS is needed for genuine #sustainability.

The trend?

"#MakeFediverseMastodon" — make it impossible to serve without a massive #datacenter. Thus forcing a return to #BigData, algorithmic feeds, #massSurveillance and overall repression.

We tend to ignore the turdsite stuff.

Since Monday, a new interest of ours is in using the peer-to-peer network (#I2P) to #democratise fediverse #contentDelivery. So when a person positively interacts with a toot the content is retained to be served by that person (if they have not flagged content and their battery is above 50%).

In this context moderation becomes self-fulfilling, and the use of I2P protects the users from survellance and targetting.

Remember, when a site you've not accessed recently loads in less that one second its because a kitten was murdered.

Inscriptions can be content delivery networks

For example: Bootstrap CDNs for JS and CSS can inscribe on the BTC chain and the inscription can be referenced in html to build webpages that don't rely on servers for certain delivery networks
