I, Ariadne, Empress of Treehouse.systems, will be imposing retaliatory tariffs on Mastodon.social of at least 25% because they annoy me.
Thank you for your attention to this matter!!!!!!!

why i have not done this already? my IPs are in various GeoIP databases as “content” IPs, so they will be treated as if I were using a VPN company.

holy fuck y'all, i decided to fuck around with things and it's so much worse than i thought initially.
after about an hour of fucking around, i discovered google fiber is handing out duplicate ipv6 prefix delegations... ones which are being actively used by other customers. 😱
here's the email i just sent to their tech support, which i am sure won't be read, but whatever.

this is what it looks like when your ISP gaslights you because they can’t be bothered to fix their DHCPv6-PD setup
why fix problems when you can gaslight instead?
i am very close to just deploying a virtualized headend at my colo which is 0.4ms ping from my house. seriously.

i really should not have to have the “look, i am a well-known security engineer, when i say i am not getting ipv6 traffic i mean it and will publish this interaction on my blog if you all don’t fix it” conversation with my ISP (google fiber)

i don’t know who needs to hear this but that LLM “girlfriend” you installed on your phone doesn’t actually love you back
