When we close and reopen VSCode (and some other IDEs), it updates the NPM packages for the installed plugins. Would these mitigations steps (e.g. pnpm) also take care of that?
"Our protocol has security against honest-but-curious adversaries. This means that as long as both participants follow the protocol honestly, neither will learn more than the size of the intersection and the intersection-sum. However, if a participant deviates from the protocol, it is possible they could learn more than the prescribed information."

On the client, is it possible to setup an “always on” VPN? Such that when the client restarts on reboot, there is no internet connection until the VPN is on. Or when either the client or server glitches, the end point computer/mobile does not connect to the internet in the clear?
“Thinking about what's next, I returned to my roots, rented the original Google office where I started my career, and founded a lab with my longtime friend and teammate @eamunozt. A bit of info: lumilabs.com”
I was referring to the browser side certificate that can be generated using the <keygen> tag, and then used for the subsequent HTTPS sessions. Would this be equivalent to ssh-keygen for SSH?
I am actually working on build something similar. So, you could roll out an app-specific VPN like secure tunnel real easy. It is inspired by the work at Google IT called BeyondCorp [1].
The target market is companies whose employees require secure remote access to internal apps, but IT does not want to give a broad network access via VPN. So, marketing/sales like employees who simply want to access internal portals, etc. without the hassle of dialing into a VPN.
Yes, DNS history is one way to leak your IP. There are several other ways that the origin IP may get leaked, so you should be very careful if you use Cloudflare:
* Keep all subdomains on CloudFlare
* Don't use wildcard subdomains if you are not on Pro account
* Don't host mail or other services on the same server as your web server (email headers have origin IP)
* Never initiate an outbound connection based on user action
* Make sure that your web server and web application are patched against all known information disclosure vulnerabilities.
* Change your origin IP once configured for maximum DDoS protection on CloudFlare
Besides Cloudflare being the biggest man-in-the-middle on the internet, their DDoS mitigation offering is also questionable. If you google "clouflare bypass" [1], you get to websites that can tell you the origin IP address of a cloudflare customer's domain name. So, malicious guys could hit the real IP directly.
I would like to contribute money for Alejandro (as I do not have the hacking ability/skills to contribute anything meaningful for the tech). Is there a way to contribute money for Alejandro and his dad?
