Netflix is hosted on AWS to name just one such instance. I have heard that internally the customer names are obfuscated, including other Amazon services. Indeed it would be a death sentence to prioritize themselves.
I understand not wanting to use SHA-1 now for security reasons, but is it still an OK practice to use it as a general hashing function for a uuid/data checksum?
Didnt' China try to do this a few years back but was shutdown for some reason? Also, this would double as a great military weapon so I am sure that is being assessed as well.
- rpi zeroW with usb serial for connecting back to my house from work/travel.
I had more projects, but I've been able to replace them all with ESP8266's. Rpi is overkill to do simple things like toggle a gpio pin or take temperature readings. Use it if you have it, but it's nice freeing up extra rpi's with a $2 ESP.
Also there really is no one AWS, each region is its own (Now more then ever before, where some systems weren't built to support this).
