There is federal funding available to finance the connection of underserved areas, specially rural, so the nature of the problem makes it natural to be fragmented. Also considering how bureaucratic Brazil is, most of the red tape was greatly streamlined for small providers.

PHP 8.1 on Ubuntu 22.04 had the fix backported and released via security.ubuntu.com

Is there a public announcement? I can only see PHP 8.5.11 images, but having a recent build date is not enough to say they are indeed patched.

It will be registered if you ask Skatteverket directly, but if you go via a company (i.e.: Eniro), the subject does not get to know it.

Nice to have another alternative, thank you!

Can you disclose how your assemble your GeoIP information? It doesn’t seem to match Maxmind’s for the couple of IPs I’ve tested.

One small piece of feedback: the CIDR pages don’t make much sense to me. For example, https://worldip.io/range/1.0.0.0/8 shows as Cloudflare owns the /8, when they actually own the /24, /8 is not allocated. I understand those pages are generated, so please consider something similar to bgp.tools’s prefix not found page, which shows me all allocated ranges, including sub-allocations: https://bgp.tools/prefix/1.0.0.0/8

In a similar tone, I made Caddy module that temporarily blocks an IP address once it tries to access specific URLs: https://github.com/kassner/caddy-trapdoor It’s great to catch those bursts of requests, nowadays I see a single IP probing hundreds of paths in a couple of seconds. This catches majority of them for me.

Their datacenter at Datavägen 15 is about 100 meters/yards away from residential buildings, not a great example.

I don't have a credit card on file, I'm not sure how they are going get paid if my balance goes negative.

But yes, other services will run until your account is dry, then it gets suspended. You can't set a spend limit on your scripts without it taking down the whole account. You can't do cost optimization, but at least you are protected from going bankrupt.

It’s not like they’re going to put a debt collector after the $0.73 that you’d owe, so I’m not sure what was your point. If you want the services to continue you gotta have some balance. If they allow your account to run below balance I’d say that’s on them.

You wouldn’t be charged thousands because the service is pre-paid. Your websites will be suspended once the balance runs out, but you can re-establish them once you add more balance.

AFAIK is the only provider in which you can have functional billing limits and not just alerts that still depend on you reacting on them in time.

TBF you can keep the account dormant if you delete all the resources. I have like $3 in balance left for over a year now.

Ansible will be terrible slow to update things if you're geographically far from the servers. Updating around 100 servers from another continent already takes longer than a 5 minute TTL. Parallel connections only work up to a point before a playbook run always have at least one failure and requires a re-run.

Ansible also does not have locks or parallel users coordination, so you’ll need a single user/VM/GHA workflow running the playbook or at some point concurrent users will start overriding each other.
