Not all computation is algorithmic. Some things are heuristic. And how, exactly, do you use the incompleteness theorem to prove you have a complete answer to what lies outside your domain of study?

Stalking laws tend to cover surveilling someone without their consent. If they can claim they have cause to follow me home, I can claim they’re being malicious and threatening doing so. Followingme home with the implicit threat of sending armed government employees after me is threatening.

Or they live in the neighborhood, or took transit to the store. Maybe they rode a bicycle.

In any case, if I’ve done nothing wrong and your drone follows me off your property I’m filing stalking and maybe doxxing complaints against your security guard, your store, your store’s manager, and Flock.

It was coming right for me. I feared for my safety. ;-)

Failed, exploding-cost projects like this are a good reason to consider whether replacing your legacy stack is worth the risk and expense.

It’s still a bot accessing content requested not to be accessed by bots. It’s alsonot identifyingitself as a bot.

Some of the most useful drivers in CUPS are "Generic PCL Laser Printer" and "Generic PostScriptPrinter". The Canon drivers for my ImageClass MF8580Cdw offer some extra features, but both of those drivers work with it and many other printers if you're just concerned with printing. It will also work over lpd, HP's hpjis or whatever, HTTP, or HTTPS. I used to have (and probably still do in a drawer) a standalone network print server to hook up to non-network-native printers. For that I could use PCL or PostScript generic drivers depending on the printer, too. Or I could actually FTP a text, PS, EPS, PCL, or IIRC PDF file directly to the print server.

Not everything useful is your primary desktop.

At this point an iPhone 5s is both cheaper and easier to order than a RaspberryPi 4B. People have lots of uses for those, which is why they're sold out everywhere that's not scalping or price gouging.

I imagine you'd usually, outside a massive backbone, terminate these into passive optical mux/demux equipment before it ever got near electronic routers or switches.

That appears to be a cable of 20 fiber pairs, with each fiber in each pair still having a single core.

You'd really just need your gateway router to do NAT for you. We could reserve a /8 for mapping active v6 connections into your v4 network. The internal v4 network doesn't need to know who it's actually talking to unless you've got a server that cares about accurate logs. You can log the mappings of the NAT from the router. If you do care at the server who's accessing it, run v6.

Why would that traffic get past the router? Why wouldn't that be internal traffic, and tunneled if it needs to go over the Internet?

There's a lot more to RFC 1918 space than 192.168/16. You're forgetting 10/8 and 172.16/12 completely here.

Honestly, though, if the whole public Internet refuses to route any IPv4 at all, then all IPv4 could be used at every installation behind that 6-to-4 bridge. There's no shortage if each private network can have 4 billion addresses. Anyone who needs to route directly without NAT in your scenario could just do the right thing and use IPv6.

Interesting you think career DoD people support a man over a nation state to which they've dedicated their careers.
