   please, for the love of god i'm begging you

   if you host a publicly accessible server

   DO NOT block ICMP and ICMPv6 in your firewall

   ;_;

   (actually you shouldn't block ICMPv6 ever, even in home networks, it's quite necessary for IPv6 to work but anyways)

     @rail_ what if I only specifically block echo requests?
