@silverpill I just had a thought: can we make Activitypub “degrade” to an RSS-like protocol to make implementations simpler, by making an instance able to say “we don’t implement server-to-server, but you can fall back to the outbox and poll instead, if you respect its caching headers”

Has anybody thought about modelling #activitypub with a tool like https://alloytools.org/book.html
to find potential exploits? Thinking about the spec it’s missing any algorithms for authorization, but I already found a couple of edge-cases that make a server DoSssable or give an attacker the ability to spoof messages … -

@silverpill does the http signature not contain the domain of the requesting server and if yes, can't it be used to compare origins after the signature check?

@NeonPurpleStar I don't think it's shifted, but it's been legalized to use the USD to gamble on these markets

The greatest good for humankind, the most ethical projects that advance our empathy and help us cross boundaries will be written in millions of lines of Intern-style PHP.
The most evil, twisted, exploitative projects that you can imagine, that kill entire populations and scorch the earth … will have a team of compiler engineers writing beautiful functional languages, producing papers and giving talks at ICFP
