A bit ironic given this is disseminated over the Internet...
The Internet would be far better if giant corporations didn't control platforms & endlessly surveille & profile & do so very unequally--to me that largely is a capitalism, governance & regulatory failure--power & control of infrastructure.
Anyone know of a good way I can have some #selfhosted service set as an #ethernet#networking gateway which I can then toggle on/off - killing all traffic I route that way?
Yes, I am looking for an easier way of manually cutting teenager internet access.

The online congress will focus on the practice of commoning throughout history with the primary objective to present innovative research informed by critical interculturality.
Federated wireguard network idea
Any feedback welcome.
Let's keep things stupidly simple and simply hash the domain name to get a unique IPv6 ULA prefix.
Then we would need a stupidly simple backend application to automatically fetch pubkeys and endpoints from DNS and make a request to add each others as peers.
Et voilà, you got a worldwide federated wireguard network resolving private ULA addresses. Sort of an internet on top of the internet .
The DNS entries with the public IPv4 / IPv6 addresses could even be delegated to other domains / endpoints which would act as reverse proxy (either routing or nesting tunnels) for further privacy.
Maybe my approach is too naïve and there are flaws I haven't considered, so don't be afraid to comment.
CBI Image of the Day: A West Germany radio telescope at Effelsberg, measuring at 300 ft across, was built in the 1970s to monitor telemetry from Germany’s first deep space probe satellite, Helios. Data collected was decoded by a dual-processor minicomputer system from Interdata.
I'm back from #EFACon2023 and what a great experience it was! I presented two well-received sessions, met tons of people, sold all the copies of Perfect Bound that I brought with me, and even sold 1 copy of Mystery at Creek Academy. That's in addition to eating good food, learning about conscious language from @RedPenRabbit and reconnecting with old friends. Are conferences worth the time and money to attend? This one was!
