🔒 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. alternativeto.net/news/2026/…

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.

We are excited to announce our first reseller partner for both our LINX operated IXPs in Kenya - WaveX! Read the news in full eu1.hubs.ly/H0sGGK50 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. #PeeringandMore #LINXinKenya #Interconnection #ISP #Networks #FortheGoodoftheInternet #Peering #DigitalKenya

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. manrs.org/2026/03/aspa-makin…

Big news from the heart of East Africa! 🇰🇪 We are officially peering at LINX Nairobi! 🌐 This move strengthens our network backbone, reduces latency, and ensures a faster, more resilient experience for our users. 📍 Location: @LINX_Network Nairobi 🚀 Status: Peering Active #LINXNairobi #Peering #AS207113 #KenyaTech #Networking #wofBIT

⚠️ CentOS 9 Vulnerability Lets Attackers Escalate to Root Privileges - PoC Released Source: cybersecuritynews.com/centos… 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). #cybersecuritynews

4 tier-1 networks have signed ASPA AS0 object. Kudos 👏

🗓️ 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.

Manual DNS management is technical debt.. #automate #dns #AS207113

Something useful from the 🇺🇸 US GOV 😱. The boffins at @NIST have released NIST-BRIO which focuses on testing BGP AS_PATH verification when ASPA (Autonomous System Provider Authorization) objects are present. See @ietf draft-ietf-sidrops-aspa-verification. nist.gov/services-resources/…
