   The attack is still ongoing and I'm weighing my options for mitigating it. There's some third-party offers but I'd like to inhouse. For now, I've moved us to the haproxy-protection by Thomas Lynch from Fatchan which has been protecting our Tor node for months.
   
   Liz Fong-Jones has been working on a way of busting this proof-of-work system. I don't know if this work has been rolled out to a botnet yet. He is still sending complaints to upstreams basically every day from his work email.
   
   I'm considering of developing a more robust anti-bot library in Rust using haproxy as a webserver.
   
   The patch sale is still running btw. I'm going to order more sets, so you'll have to wait a bit but you've not missed out.
   
   That's your status update for today. Hope you all had a merry Christmas!

     @DisasterHighway He works as CTO for Honeycomb. I believe he was removed from Google. I've received multiple stories from Googlers that he was a known menace in the company.

     @josh Does that moron actually do anything productive at google? He seems to just harass you instead.

     @charliebrownau I2P does not work with dynamic fucking websites. If you want to write a XF2 plugin to upload static content to IP2, be my guest. I will not. Thanks.

     Gday

     I recommend migrating to I2P , not ((( TOR )))

     Use C/C++/Pascal/Fortan/Assembler

     Avoid ((( java ))) , avoid ((( python ))) , avoid ((( RUST )))
