Local man devastated after not tasting his own shit.

That's amazing, thanks for sharing!

Just use AA like the rest of us it's not rocket science

I would ask you to reconsider. Maybe look for an open source alternative or just another solution rather than wp plugins, or wp in general. There are already alternative foss programs to wp if you really need a suite for making the website.

The reason I say this is simply security. Let's say you get your hands on a fully malware free version of that plugin today, so far so good. What happens when the plugin needs a security update? Your version is pirated so it obviously won't be updated automatically. Now until you find an updated pirated version your website has a security hole that you can't do anything about unless you disable the plugin. Depending on plugin, now your website is either broken, slow or whatever you get the point

Any personal recommendations?

Cool read ദ്ദി ˉ͈̀꒳ˉ͈́ )✧

I am in complete agreement with you on all these points.

The issue is, workers ARE already being exploited. The idea is regulations would bring about safeguards that would try to prevent these scenarios.

But let's say what you said has happened and now someone is in this situation you described. There are two scenarios:

1. Prostitution is legal
2. Prostitution is illegal.. now what? commit crimes? starve? It's not like because prostitution is illegal suddenly there are new prospects available to this person in this broken system

I'd argue decriminalization of prostitution does more good than harm in this situation.

Your first fear is completely valid, hopefully good policy and active regulations can prohibit that. Still can't imagine it will be worse than the current state that sex workers face.

For the second point, while job centers are tasked to find you a job in your field, it is funny to imagine a conversation going like:

• So I have a doctorate in chemistry with 6 years of experience in my field, looking for a new position
• Sorry Dr. we don't have any openings atm, but we do need an office twink, unfortunately our last office twink is now t'was

Ah right, I thought you were doing it like this

Internet -> Fritzbox + Pihole -> Opnsense -> Home Network

It makes sense now :D

That sounds overly complicated, why not have it all on opnsense instead of 3 different devices?

Is your opnsense unstable? Otherwise regarding network availability you are just introducing unnecessary failure points the network.

I'm curious as why you decided to setup pihole when you already have opnsense. More so that your records are in pihole and not opnsense

No, Hosting has a technical definition. When you rent a server or in this case VPS, the company is hosting you. You can maintain or administer the services but you are never hosting yourself on someone else's computer.
