  • It is inefficient in both tunnel and transport mode, sacrificing 20-30% of available bandwidth.
  • It is cryptographically expensive, making your clients work harder and costing the VPN provider more money to host nodes.
  • It is complex to setup and deploy.
  • Uses outdated crypto.
  • Operates in Userspace.
  • WireGuard is essentially better in every one of these regards.

The curious thing is that from her perspective, she was only swimming straight the whole time, and only expending energy going straight. It was the 'gifted' energy of the tide that caused the oscillation (from our perspective).

Just struck me as interesting to think that from her point of view she was swimming as straight and as efficiently as was possible.

Yes G, the UK one, is generally regarded as the safest.

This showcase also doesn't show that UK sockets have flaps come down on the interior of the socket, so unless the longer and shielded earth pin is pushed in first, the flaps exposing live and neutral won't raise.

You could always get a tunneled V6 line but it's a lot of hassle for something you should have by default.

Us europoors may not have golden toilet seats and medical insurance, or V8 Chevvies, or American Size Mayonnaise, but we have our 2a02:7892:1234:::/64!!!!!

Monopolistic control of buildings by one ISP is illegal in most Euro countries :D

If I showed you my WAN-side firewall logs you'd have a panic attack. I have a /29 block and about 10 scans tap one IP or another every second. It's part of being on the internet.

Your domestic home router experiences the exact same thing. Every moment of every day.

Will you report every scan? Every Chinese IP? Every US IP? It's completely common place to have someone 'knock on the door'.

Get off IPv4 anyway and onto IPv6. Good luck to them finding you by chance in there.
