Volgens het oude recept. In november 2025 werd de overname bekend. Toen was het te vroeg iets te doen. Dus deed men niets. En nu zeggen ze dat het te laat is om nog iets te doen. Klassieke truc die al in Yes Minister aangeraden werd.

Love this.

Which email provider handles your municipality's official communications?

We built mxmap.nl to make that visible, all Dutch municipalities, mapped by email provider based on public DNS records.
Inspired by the Swiss original mxmap.ch by David Huser. We adapted it for the Netherlands. All credit for the concept goes to him.

Under the CLOUD Act, provider location matters. The map makes the current reality clear.

The A in AI stands for Abuse

Some stranger’s commentary on open source work I did last year: “Whatever developer implemented this behavioral change needs to be taken out into a parking lot and given a beat-down.”

It’s a weird week with such threats of violence and a stream of hysterical AI slop security reports sent my way.

The rpki-client implementation will never download ".xml" or "*.log" files via rsync. And this archive instance will never serve anything BUT "*.log" and "*.log"via Rsync, see this filter.
I want the cake AND eat it. In order to avoid making my archival efforts complicit in future cross-protocol attacks, _this_ particular archive about HTTP responses is only available via Rsync :-) https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/sidrops/w2BUb4-MGj_T383S58yTBEbn9so/

The final quotes sting everyone that's done architecture:

"The series began with a single engineer’s shock on his first day back in the organization.

"It ends with the same observation, now seen at every layer: the foundational problems in the node stack were visible, the operational and security consequences were measurable, and the proposed paths forward were concrete.

"At no level did those signals generate a response."
