@gsuberland@chaos.social I self host the majority of my infrastructure but basically everything beyond a couple of fully static html sites and public DNS for said domains is behind a VPN that requires a preshared key plus valid client cert to get into.

@azonenberg@ioc.exchange @gsuberland@chaos.social the biggest trick the devil (aka corporations) pulled on man is to convince them they need every single one of their belongings to have wifi and be cloud-connected so they can "easily access it from anywhere", and just NO, I can easily access my Home Assistant whenever I truly need it by VPNing into my home network over wireguard from anywhere, I don't need or want it publicly exposed on the internet.
(not even going into the part "Do you really need to access the air fryer in your kitchen "conveniently from anywhere in the world"??!)
