    Denial-of-service attack aimed at .ZA

    Why is this still being debated? We can obtain a history view of what transpired by reviewing analysis of the co.za domain by using DNSViz. If we review the state of the records before any of the problems started, Tuesday the 4th of March 2025: https://dnsviz.net/d/co.za/Z8ddxg/dnssec/ And then...

    Denial-of-service attack aimed at .ZA

    Google harvest DNS queries for indexing, making information available publicly. Using an ISP's may arguably be more private as the information isn't shared anywhere directly. The security postures of Google, Cloudflare, Quad9, etc is however exemplary and you can use them with load balancing or...

    Denial-of-service attack aimed at .ZA

    I don't think that ZACR SLAs and agreements provide for penalties. What is however frustrating is that ZACR status pages do not record any outages or interruptions and contacting ZACR support yields nothing besides 'we're not aware of any outage affecting co.za'. I was really hoping to have...

    CBI Astute Power Monitor / Switch -- Tasmotized!

    I don't think that the new versions of the CBI Astute WiFi circuit breakers can be flashed without resoldering. I've tinkering with this a little more and replaced local-tuya with tuya-local. The GitHub site needs to be added to HACS manually but it provides an extensive list of preconfigured...

    CBI Astute Power Monitor / Switch -- Tasmotized!

    Hi, I'm running local tuya v5.2.1 with home Assistant and experiencing a problem that current (Amps) and consumption (Watts) often stop updating. The readings either remain at zero or they stay on 8.x or 12.x Amps, even when turning the switch off. The switch itself remains functional in Home...
