They way they marketed their VPN early on was the first thing I thing. The VPN seemed great but the marketing felt like virtue signalling, I don't really remember the specifics so it could have been a me thing. Then the news broke they turned over user data to authorities. I kind of expected it but they pushed the fact that they were in Switzerland like it made them more shielded from that (again kind of a marketing distaste). Then this year there was them accidentally funding a french far right youtuber. A small enough thing to have been a mistake, but also it piles on to the bad feelings.

So it's not antagonism, but it's an ick.

    On January 14, 2026, global telnet traffic observed by GreyNoise sensors fell off a cliff. A 59% sustained reduction, eighteen ASNs going completely silent, five countries vanishing from our data entirely. Six days later, CVE-2026-24061 dropped. Coincidence is one explanation.

    The pattern points toward one or more North American Tier 1 transit providers implementing port 23 filtering

    I'm oddly excited about the posters for no real reason. I'm also wondering if the Resource Drive is going to make this the Raft's year to shine.

     

    After watching a resident squirrel repeatedly try (and fail) to get at one of our bird feeders, I somehow got the image in my head of the squirrel sitting on Teddy's stool at Bob's Burgers chowing down. So I opened up CAD and decided to make my daydream a reality. That was almost a year ago, but I've finally gotten it published and wanted to share.
