Suffering from an old-maidenly preoccupation with self-protection which borders on a mechanical paranoia.

I printed out #TailCat s man/help page because I wasn't sure I was believing what I was seeing. This is an extremely useful tool, that runs in user space, can host an ingress point to the entire network that negotiates around firewalls, can host an authentication-less SSH session, and users are encouraged to place the key to this in their public DNS txt records.

What's stopping me from just scraping the web for txt records that are tailcat= ? Nothing. And I'm gonna do it.

A terminal which reads:

 "Anywhere a <tc-addr> argument is accepted, a DNS name whose "tailcat=" TXT record contains one may be used instead:

	tailcat ssh example.com" — Open image attachment ⁨1⁩ of ⁨1⁩
