Previously you had to D/L a separate v2 client, and almost no one did that.<br/><br/>v2 torrents support individual file torrenting. If a file you want to D/L from a torrent is also included in 10 different torrents you now have 11 different sources, not just the one from your initial torrent file.

It reduces disk usage<br/>through the variable length data chains, though each data file has one consistent data chainrow length, and through the use of<br/>prefix indexes. It is in some ways similar to the RTI format but designed to be easier to modify items in subsequent minor<br/>versions and this flexibility adds a fair amount of complexity.

They acquired them pretty regularly and integrated them best they could. <br/><br/>I asked why keep all the separate brands and marketing if it’s all basically the same thing, and he explained the market is segmented. Some users believe a particular VPN is better for gaming, or business, or torrenting, or porn, or cheapest or whatever.<br/><br/>It actually hurt them the couple times they tried to merge brands, so now they try to merge all they can behind the scenes technically but keep the brand identities separate. <br/>#DEFCON #VPN #VPN #Tor 2026-06-28T02:09:33Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqspyxplqxavc26llha03kqw56euvjrm7794g7mzmry5quz5h2w5pfgzypfwrq2n0yeytqxhlthm8c5lhe73exhwqzg8tgucm2fe3cg7dgqr5n7g3en In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs9a460f6su73man9lzuw76eudrn27326fzkdz6vaxzqwy9hnmzevg6raduq'>nevent1q…aduq</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>It’s the only way in Asia, we changed our business cards to the LAST First format around 2017 2026-06-28T00:51:09Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqst9q9dr7g7jafag759g2nzdcfkx6gntvfr8nx404exdq6ufksc55gzypfwrq2n0yeytqxhlthm8c5lhe73exhwqzg8tgucm2fe3cg7dgqr5vaa962 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs8t7epxfxllx47eythqpjfzk8nysctk3286hdkdkhh0tk6utn2uegvdxkfl'>nevent1q…xkfl</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Its the only format that makes me feel safe saying their name without any unintentionally insulting them. 2026-06-27T23:58:06Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqspven7pztr7yqel2s4cts3s9t5gwejln68gsvwxpkj0clzdhafegszypfwrq2n0yeytqxhlthm8c5lhe73exhwqzg8tgucm2fe3cg7dgqr5cf7s5w In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqspjl4rs7jrscxmmnm0gzqscna5sud8n2qvds2j6qvpzfuh3ljxryqqvjvr5'>nevent1q…jvr5</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>You don’t have anyone using LAST First? 2026-06-27T23:55:48Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsrrh7tvwnexlmryx2pa32ffymkg7tntfl80fhl4r5mwq0nc4ru8hqzypfwrq2n0yeytqxhlthm8c5lhe73exhwqzg8tgucm2fe3cg7dgqr5q68rn6 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqszqk86stuuqhtjdhw0u9fsswurn3e0tqhj37nlphtj6mpykmcnuccccch7x'>nevent1q…ch7x</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Next up, a #DEFCON #VPN service sounds awesome. Like with email there is plenty of expertise on how to build VPNs. Technically it is a realistic goal, so let&#39;s investigate!<br/><br/>To be attractive to a large customer base you need to offer a lot of locations with an ever changing pool of addresses for when some get blocked by someone in the world.<br/><br/>Those two things mean you need a pool of providers and great automation playbooks where you can easily spin up and provision &#34;secure&#34; VPN gateways all over the world.<br/><br/>Because of the reliance on 3rd parties, unlike with email, you now have to worry about the legal concept of the 3rd party doctrine, so have some more lawyers ready to do battle.<br/><br/>Then two things happened, I spoke with two different people with experience in the VPN game. First someone who served as a CTO to a large VPN provider.<br/><br/>They spent all their time trying to save money, automate more, and respond to non-stop customer complaints from over seas business people. Chine would block some VPN addresses and they could no longer connect to their company back home and they needed to do that RIGHT NOW. So a sort of daily fire drill. The increasing VPN competition meant they had to keep spending on advertising and cost control.<br/><br/>The second person put the final nail in the coffin. They explained as far as they could tell about half of all VPN providers had ties to intelligence services. Either as fronts or investors or super friendly &#34;partners&#34;. Iran, Russia, China, North Korea, some Middle Eastern countries, all play in this space.<br/><br/>This means half of the VPN providers have a different business model than the other half. Their goal is maximum people at the least cost to cast as large a monitoring net as possible, and revenue from paying customers doesn&#39;t have to actually cover your operating costs. <br/><br/>Building a #VPN service the right way would mean we would be more expensive, in fewer locations, and support only the strongest technologies - all things that would reduce your pool of potential customers.<br/><br/>So, like the private email idea, it was interesting to investigate, we learned a lot, and we will never enter the VPN market.<br/><br/>Instead we run free #Tor relays and support <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub1vwvtra8vq0zy7wtd9mzhz2xfyzq4r5nae5tzfffhzfg76tz0ml3qsacqgs" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>The Tor Project</span> (<span class="italic">npub1vwv…cqgs</span>)</a></span> Please support Tor and other privacy technologies. 2026-06-27T19:59:39Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqszqk86stuuqhtjdhw0u9fsswurn3e0tqhj37nlphtj6mpykmcnucczypfwrq2n0yeytqxhlthm8c5lhe73exhwqzg8tgucm2fe3cg7dgqr5hjuv0t In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsz74znqlemzsc4d8jcj5zj2antjk8mmfcq84yevc8r8auqjzhj4ngq53grn'>nevent1q…3grn</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>For #DEFCON to do private email we would want to host our own servers to avoid the 3rd party legal doctrine, and keep them secure.<br/><br/>No problem, we have a secure location and lawyers.<br/><br/>Back during COVID when we were investigating this it was still possible to gather some open source info on how large other private email services were. How big was the market? Could you make enough money to hire the people and buy the servers?<br/><br/>MailFence, Proton, and others showed it was possible if you were very efficient. Great!<br/><br/>Then I spoke with someone who worked at a white label email service provider. I realized DEF CON would never do a private email service for two reasons:<br/><br/>CSAM: They explained they had about 10 people dedicated to responding to legal requests around CSAM, not including their lawyers and LE relationship people.<br/><br/>SPAM: They had another room with about 30 people dealing just with spammers and the impacts of spammers. Managing their ASNs, netblocks that get lower reputation on blackhole lists, moving customers to &#34;clean&#34; netblocks when a shared block gets polluted by spammers, etc.<br/><br/>Conclusion? If you are very successful you can look forward to having a room of 40 people dealing with LE, SPAM, CSAM, Networking, and that&#39;s before you add on customer service. That doesn&#39;t seem fun or very DEF CON Hacker anymore.<br/><br/>Next up, VPN. 2026-06-27T19:36:58Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsz74znqlemzsc4d8jcj5zj2antjk8mmfcq84yevc8r8auqjzhj4ngzypfwrq2n0yeytqxhlthm8c5lhe73exhwqzg8tgucm2fe3cg7dgqr52nlqrx Back during COVID I looked into starting either a #DEFCON #VPN service, or a private email service.<br/><br/>Both VPN and email are well understood services, there is no shortage of people with expertise, it is not a big technical challenge to set up and operate...<br/><br/>Each became impossible or unattractive after talking to people who have operated them at deep levels over time. Here is why: 2026-06-27T19:26:00Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsyf32km809g7s5ch4qym6ug3tl4cy6t6yrlqx8f0llhuyq6xsj7mszypfwrq2n0yeytqxhlthm8c5lhe73exhwqzg8tgucm2fe3cg7dgqr5ttjenz What a day of moving servers, untangling (some) of the DEF CON server room network and power cables. <br/><br/>This week and weekend will be more cleaning and ordering the correct length cables to get better air flow and a handle on the cable creep.<br/><br/>Today I consolidated and removed three power strips and a network switch. Tomorrow another switch should get migrated. Anything to save power and heat. Once we get closer to #DefCon we try and only perform security updates to stay as stable as possible. 2026-06-26T07:19:21Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsqv0zav5g0zamqtfdp8zgjnew3mxcvwe8p5f5zfsjwxyt02h2d9nszypfwrq2n0yeytqxhlthm8c5lhe73exhwqzg8tgucm2fe3cg7dgqr58r7379 How old skool is my #YubiKey?<br/> <img src="https://files.defcon.social/dcsocial-s3/media_attachments/files/116/780/190/294/703/835/original/e61ae19832bd08b4.jpeg"> <br/> <img src="https://files.defcon.social/dcsocial-s3/media_attachments/files/116/780/190/560/162/651/original/445ac56c5ca250bb.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-06-20T02:58:18Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqszpreesvusc9n5hn3lpu5gylpzv6rldwwt70qgfuucezjyt6vqfkgzypfwrq2n0yeytqxhlthm8c5lhe73exhwqzg8tgucm2fe3cg7dgqr5naxquw In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsxcueetsyqslh275089tqhqm5e8m0hwt5det3cxgrgwr4zjh6d6xcc0nsxk'>nevent1q…nsxk</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>That’s like me every time Linux has a crit, I’m just waiting for BSD to have something 2026-06-17T22:05:22Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs9d47trlejvuvkuaef7e7h6wvd45fak02kdt6mtssrnaje9tnmsjgzypfwrq2n0yeytqxhlthm8c5lhe73exhwqzg8tgucm2fe3cg7dgqr5lk922h In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqswyfv94aqtyjz3r7uelrptjprpuf5rg96y5kk43sm9dxzta7cx4qgw6guam'>nevent1q…guam</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>What did you migrate to that doesn’t have security updates? 2026-06-17T22:01:28Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsxhgy3hvgywuc0ur7fyqq7jzuwmr88y3rduyaky7vs9p0h3l74d0czypfwrq2n0yeytqxhlthm8c5lhe73exhwqzg8tgucm2fe3cg7dgqr5gvm4rk New #Nginx is out with security fixes, start your upgrades!<br/><a href="https://nginx.org/en/CHANGES">https://nginx.org/en/CHANGES</a><br/>#SysAdmin #MastoAdmin 2026-06-17T21:17:17Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsvqg3yr6uzmwxm9eulk2yvw9e8hcq5nygakgtmv75rgqlml6f82fqzypfwrq2n0yeytqxhlthm8c5lhe73exhwqzg8tgucm2fe3cg7dgqr587n32n In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsrtmqa8svj5s4qr0m2tcy6khxctthp4zhmdsgupmdze78h6cznnlsap996s'>nevent1q…996s</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I didn&#39;t say it needed human input, I&#39;m curious if bot designers think it is worth the effort to implement for the marginal return. 2026-06-13T17:33:21Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqst3r5ydsxeludnte7kyxlevz0daz7mhsp33jd7xcp5r246qank8hczypfwrq2n0yeytqxhlthm8c5lhe73exhwqzg8tgucm2fe3cg7dgqr5wt7tx6 With the upcoming #Mastodon 4.6 and the ability to require 2FA for all accounts I&#39;m curious - How do bots handle it?<br/><br/>Bots clearly zoom past CAPTCHAS, but what about @FA ORP or Pass Keys?<br/>#FediAdmin #FediBlock 2026-06-13T17:18:35Z
