You control that. You block them. I dont think its actually against the rules. I dont like it either.

The only slop worth using is slop you make for yourself.

Has that been happening a lot here?

I guess they really meant it when they said 4Chan style

Wild, the shit you can make up in your own head.

Damn I’m lucky I just run small game servers cause the old way still works for me, aside from piehole that needs to be updated but it squeels at me when it needs it so I dont have to remember.

Anything you post here is public as well as your activity through the modlog.

Well for one its not as automatic as it sounds. Basic protections will get you far. I have a minecraft server exposed but it only accepts connections from 3 specific places. Remember its the same as ever other real life deterrant, make yourself less of a target than the next guy. It also really helps not having juicy company data on your network. Home networks are way less of a target because you dont have any fine booty to loot.

Whats your use case for the NAS? Mine is a media library and anything over USB would really suck. But I have a oldish TerraStation running a modified version of debian for my NAS. It’d probably be easiest using an old desktop and just throwing whatever debian stable is on it.

My pi 1b handles the internal DNS for my game servers, which at this point is actually just minecraft because PSO:BB was way harder to setup than I thought. It works and it is extremely easy and it still holes all the tracking stuff too.

Run some jellyfin on it just for your house

It just widens your attack surface for the ghost army of bots that roam the net knocking on ports, you don’t want to be someone else’s sap. I would imagine most home attacks fall into three categories: script kiddies just war driving, targeted attacks on someone specific, or just plain ol’ looking for sensitive docs for identity theft or something. Its still the net, man. If you leave your ass hanging out someone’s gonna bite it in a new way every time.
