  1. [en] Cloud outages: "#Concentration is the real risk" - Prof Doug #Jacobson

    For example, #DNS ... has quietly become a single point of failure ... DNS is not alone.

    #Cloud outages are getting more #expensive. "#Centralization magnifies these costs."

    "... concentration means that a single configuration error, routing issue or attack can ripple across much of the web."

  3. 🔥 Internet s’est encore cassé la gueule à cause d’un seul acteur. Bienvenue dans la monoculture logicielle et ses #SPOF à large échelle. #Cloudflare, rappel utile : vos données sont entre leurs mains… et celles de Donald 🇺🇸.
    💥 Ces derniers tps, tous ont merdé : #AWS, #Microsoft, #Meta, #Google... #GAFAM.
    ⚠️ Les solutions libres et décentralisées ? Oui, ça demande un effort, mais les boîtes acceptent de galérer pour la compta ou le bâti, mais pas pour le numérique, encore jugé comme "non vital" 🤦

  7. Signal waarschuwing die meevalt, maar wel te denken geeft
    In de Signal app verscheen bij een account de waarschuwing “Je veiligheidsnummer met [naam] is veranderd”. Volgens de supportpagina kan er dan van alles mis zijn, dus oplett

  11. anyone know of an e2ee comms tool like Signal but without any SPOFs?

    #Signal
    #SPOF

  12. so... turns out that Signal has a SPOF on AWS us-east-1

    ... *until* and unless they can prove (or at least convince us) they have made approp changes and therefore no longer do

    plan accordiningly, folks!

    e2ee comms matters little if its backend pipes are down. all that fancy encryption becomes irrelevant if DoS'ed, at scale, and without warning

    Vint Cerf would not be happy!

    #Signal
    #SPOF

  13. Vint Cerf and Al Gore, in all their wisdom, designed The Internet to be able to withstand a nuclear attack on large parts of it, on key hubs, and yet survive and continue to work fine.

    By 2025 AWS has become a de facto SPOF (single point of failure) for a *significant* percentage of the world's compute infrastructure.

    And The Bad Guys out there know it.

    So let's change it, mmmmkay?

  15. Signal is supposedly the most secure e2ee comms app in the world.

    And it just went down.

    Because of the AWS us-east-1 outage.

    Tons of folks had come to rely on Signal as their "go to" team comms tool, both in private & professional life.

    Achilles heel?

    Complexity kills, kids.

  29. Economies & societies (nationstates) are #systems. As such, they naturally avoid single points of control, because they're also single points of failure [SPOC/ #SPOF]. That means it only takes 1 error for the whole system to crash, 1 well placed attack or blackmail, etc. #EvidenceBasedGovernance

    The, how many disasters from homelessness index.

    As that becomes a review of how clustered are any assets it rapidly becomes clear that though the magnitude of disaster can be different the number that could clear anybody out is much smaller than they think.
