That might be a big scope increase compared to the type of software it is currently, but what a great idea. Maybe file a feature request in their github project?

I'm seeing the same, not even using a VPN.

I never even set up DNS for things that aren't public facing. I just keep /etc/hosts updated everywhere and ssh/scp/rsync things around using their non-fqdn hostnames.

Oh cool! I'm always a week or so late on Behind the Bastards, I wait until they put it on youtube so I can use sponsorblock and kill the ads. I like the coolzonemedia podcasts, but they're way too heavy on the ads for me without a blocker

Molly White also wrote about this in the context of open access on the web and people being concerned about how their works are being used.

“Wait, not like that”: Free and open access in the age of generative AI

The same thing happened again with the explosion of generative AI companies training models on CC-licensed works, and some were disappointed to see the group take the stance that, not only do CC licenses not prohibit AI training wholesale, AI training should be considered non-infringing by default from a copyright perspective.

 

I recently set up a probe on a box in my home lab for Open Observatory of Network Interference (OONI) that does distributed monitoring of access to various Internet services to monitor censorship. It got me thinking there must be other distributed/collaborative things I could contribute to. I know of some others like:

  • BOINC is a grid computing academic research thing where you run a client and donate CPU to crunch academic research data
  • NYC Mesh you can volunteer to run a node for their community wireless mesh network

What are some other do-gooder things you can self host on your home network?

If you don't want to host your own data, take a look at TarSnap
