  • Privileged ports can be used by processes that are running without root permissions. So if the sshd process would crash or stop for some other reason, any malicious user process could pretend to be the real ssh server without privilege escalation. To be fair this isn’t really a concern for single user systems. But setting up fail2ban or only making ssh accessible from a local network or VPN would probably be a more helpful hardenening step

    And regarding port 2222 it is the most popular non-provileged port used for SSH according to shodan.io So you ain’t gaining much obscurity








  • A bit of topic but why the hell does the champagne wiki reccomend Edge as a browser citing it’s AI capabilities? Is this copied directly from MS marketing material?

    Edit: I am starting to read through it and there Is so much bad, outdated and just wrong information there:

    • they recommend to set a DNS level adblocker using an app that isn’t supported on the android version the guide is for and completely forget that you can just set the DNS server without any additional app on any modern android version (what is what the provider of the Dns server they recommend reccomends)
    • they tell you protonVPN doesn’t support Torrenting (maybe just bad wording) and recommended mullvad because of that

    I don’t really want to continue beyond before-you-begin

    Edit2: Uh why is there an extensive article on how to deal with addiction and how to do meditation in the piracy section?

    I don’t think I should continue any further

    Edit3: you can contribute to the wiki by sending markdown files in a discord channel. Wikipedia should switch to this model as well imo
