When Australia eventually blocks this site, I will distribute VPN certificates (to access this site, not as a general VPN) to the Aussies.
Same goes if NAS is blocked by any other country (not embargoed by the US).
If that happens, since this site will be inaccessible, I will put instructions here: https://github.com/Eriner/nas-vpn
Please bookmark that page and visit it ~24 hours after the site has been blocked for instructions.
FWIW, NAS is still not blocked in China : http://www.chinafirewalltest.com/?siteurl=noauthority.social
@eriner you are a good person.
@eriner thanks for your work
@eriner Thank you
@eriner they like using DNS to block shit. So a simple change from ISP DNS to anything else usually works wonders. That’s how I access my… uh… never mind.
@eriner china really doesn't seem to be as draconian as it's been made out to be
@eriner WOLVERINES n junk!
@eriner Thank you for your time and consideration.
@eriner good work being ahead of the game.
The Australian Government is pretty dopey so I predict it'll be a while before they even realise Mastodon exists let alone decide its something they want to block.
@eriner add the github url to my local mirror's. Thanks for the work!
Oh oh!
I've got instructions for setting up Pihole with custom DNS. It'll bypass all the lazy sysadmins who just dink with DNS blocking system wide.
It's got most of the instructions for Wireguard if you're interested. I've posted it before, but I'm not sure I've posted it here.
I might post it anyway, but just wanted to give a heads up in case anyone else on this thread is interested.
@Fox @eriner can someone explain why piehole would be better than a hosts file?
I've been using Dan Pollock's https://someonewhocares.org/hosts/
for, like ever.
Hosts files work and they're old school.
But if you didn't want to or are not able to install a hosts file on all your devices (at home or through VPN) then Pihole can block all the DNS requests from all the devices on that network (local or VPN).
I do some witchcraft with Pihole, VPN and a VPS to also encrypt all my DNS requests leaving my Wi-Fi network or on VPN.
Goes around any DNS blocks by default and hides the target DNS servers from the ISP.
@eriner TYFYC
@eriner is THE BEST.
@eriner Thanks bro!
@eriner “Proximo, are you in danger of becoming a good man?”
@Stuxnet1984 oh man you’re gonna make me watch Gladiator tonight.
No! Never watch gladiator.
DON'T DO IT
@Stuxnet1984
@jazzilla @Stuxnet1984 what, was the Director British or something?
@eriner
No, it sucks ass and you will fall asleep, then wake up and wish you had spent you time reading American history.
@Stuxnet1984
@eriner
American history...
THE STORY OF HOW YOU GOT YOUR ASS KICKED BY BRITAIN
@Stuxnet1984
@jazzilla @Stuxnet1984 seek help, @jazzilla. Seek help.
@eriner
I'd rather read the finer points of extended shell globbing options...
..Than listen to you recommend British political compliance and deprogramming options...
TO BE HONEST
@jazzilla @Stuxnet1984 how on God’s green earth is a fictional Swords and Sandals movie set in 180 AD “British political compliance and deprogramming”?
I assume you only posted that because you have a zinger, so let’s hear it.
You're imagining things again. You must be under lots of pressure.
You recommended me to therapy.
Do you remember your post?
It was like an hour ago. If you scroll up, you can still read it.
I was replying to that.
That's how replies work.
@jazzilla @Stuxnet1984 no, i recommended you seek help. Presumably from your French handler on account of your #BDS.
No therapist is capable of providing you with the help you so desperately need.
Oh I see.
So hire it out, get more American history out there, so American men can finally stop being such conquered faggots?
Not a bad idea.
@eriner thanks bruh!
@eriner onya cobba
@eriner Thank you so much. I'm kind of looking forward to the bad boy image I will exude when I say I'm a member of a banned community.
