Try building something with SDL on Windows if you want to see this for yourself.

It seems like a lot of the security of the device depends on active scanning (e.g. the LDS clamshell mesh, the IMU, the temp sensor, etc.), which stops working after 6 months. Is the vector of a malicious actor taking the device and waiting 6 months before breaking in considered not worth protecting against?

The Kademlia/Bittorrent DHT protocol still requires an initial node to bootstrap access the DHT. In Bittorrent, a set of known-good nodes is encoded into the .torrent file (or clients can use previously-discovered nodes they might happen to know about, or router.bittorrent.com as a last-resort fallback).

How does Scout bootstrap?

Designer & author of the JSON OT algorithm that underlies ShareJS/ShareDB here. I do not have a formal proof for any of the properties of the algorithm, but we have extensively fuzzed it and are confident in its correctness. I believe a proof of correctness is possible, merely tedious.
