My house was built in 1999, my furnace in the attic is original. 27 years old and going strong. True every year I need to blow it to get it up and running, but compared to the alternative I'll take it!

In a similar vein, the gas fireplace is also original and also going strong.

    The benefit here is the software by design can't read your traffic - it's using SNI to route, not the host header, so SSL pass thru keeps the payload private. It's billed as shareable for that reason.

    Also this is open source and you can host it yourself.

    Edit: I concede BakedCatboy's point.

    In either case I would probably just use FRP.

    In the US at least, this is why you use a credit card. If your package gets lost in transit and the merchant refuses to remedy the issue, that's a easy dispute for merchandise not received. It doesn't matter what the merchant tells you, it's their responsibility to ensure the merchandise arrives.

    That being said, every shipping protection scheme I've personally seen is billed as a convenience feature - "less hassle".

    Don't forget the momentary feelings of depression when you start looking into a niche thing and you get overwhelmed by a desire to consume all content and realize there is not enough time in your life to truly give it the attention it deserves. And this makes you feel like I'm a way you're betraying the countless creators who came before you because you.
