Great growth.

We’re still waiting for a CDN77 node in Kenya though there’s already significant traffic from East Africa flowing through upstream transit instead of being served locally.

A Nairobi deployment would materially reduce latency, improve cache hit efficiency, and offload a lot of expensive international capacity for regional ISPs. 🚀

My Internet provider (Wofbit Networks, AS207113) implements BGP safely! Check out https://t.co/NRvX61wppk to see if your ISP implements BGP in a safe way or if it leaves the Internet vulnerable to malicious route hijacks. via @Cloudflare

🔒 Privacy-focused DNS resolver Quad9 now supports DNS over HTTP/3 (DoH3) and DNS over QUIC (DoQ), enhancing encrypted DNS options. DoH3 uses HTTP/3 on QUIC, while DoQ uses QUIC directly. Both improve privacy and security for users.

Before DNS, the Internet ran on a single text file.

You wanted a hostname?

You emailed Elizabeth Feinler’s team at SRI. They edited their local HOSTS.TXT and then everyone downloaded the new copy!

That worked… until it didn’t.

By 1983, it was obvious this wouldn’t scale, so Paul Mockapetris created DNS: distributed, hierarchical, no single point of failure.

The modern Internet exists because we stopped relying on one file to keep it all straight!

Recent network deployment meeting: You can measure your crossconnect neighbor (without LLDP and DC lookup) using comparison of light levels across newly plugged transceivers.

@plamenpetkov We’ve been dealing with this exact pattern as well and honestly, it’s one of the more frustrating attack profiles to handle in a live ISP environment.

We are excited to announce our first reseller partner for both our LINX operated IXPs in Kenya - WaveX! Read the news in full https://t.co/QA4Ud50qOm By reselling at both #LINXNairobi and #LINXMombasa, WaveX are effectively providing a route to each exchange for networks without a physical presence, but needing to pick up network traffic.

ASPA is emerging to prevent BGP route leaks by validating provider relationships between networks.

This overview from @Cloudflare's @heymingwei and Bryton Herdes shares why it matters for routing security and the resilience of the global Internet.

⚠️ CentOS 9 Vulnerability Lets Attackers Escalate to Root Privileges - PoC Released

Source: https://t.co/uaZuZhTU1U

A critical use-after-free (UAF) vulnerability in the Linux kernel's sch_cake queuing discipline (Qdisc) affects CentOS 9, allowing local users to gain root privileges.

The issue arises in the cake_enqueue function of the CAKE Qdisc, which returns NET_XMIT_SUCCESS even after dropping packets due to buffer limits.

This misleads parent classful Qdiscs like HFSC, leading to improper state management and a UAF when dequeuing packets. Attackers can exploit this for arbitrary code execution in kernel context, achieving local privilege escalation (LPE).

🗓️ Exactly three weeks ago #Iran imposed a national internet blackout to obscure civilian killings. Whitelisting and heavy filtering are still in effect.

The incident is among the most severe of its kind on record, exceeded in duration only during civil war in Myanmar and Sudan.
