  • I am no fan of reddit but in this case Reddit appears to have championed this users anonymity going so far as to actively draw the ire of the administration.

    • Reddit refused to comply with the initial administrative subpoena
    • the Federal government came back with this grand jury subpoena and warned Reddit not to disclose the existence of the subpoena or they’d consider it interference in federal law enforcement
    • Reddit complied with this new legally binding subpoena, but did not comply with the demand to keep it a secret. In the contrary, they immediately alerted the user of the subpoena which allowed him time to immediately lawyer up.

    You’re not wrong that you’re not safe posting on Reddit, but if this case is any indication you’re not any less safe posting in Reddit than any other site, including Lemmy.
















  • If you have a mix of different systems both on-prem and cloud, and tie them together in various ways using VPNs, mesh or otherwise, create a graph using something like Excalidraw to give yourself a refresher on how everything connects. You want machines, hostnames, IPs, ports, and a list of services. You don’t have to be fancy by creating visual representations of each service, just a bulleted list. You only really have to update this when adding or removing compute.

    If you’re running services on lots of different nodes, a spreadsheet that just maps services to whatever URL you use access them, to whichever backend server is running them. This takes minimum effort and gets you 90% of the way there.
