This article[^] was in the Daily Mail discussing online piracy. My thoughts on this is that the content providers are their own worst enemy. I would happily subscribe to 2 or 3 services that delivered the content I want in the format I want (no commercials). Instead the providers insist on creating their own delivery systems. So now I have to subscribe to 3, 4, 5, or more at $10 a month to get the programs I want to see and my list of must watch is not that long. I currently have cable, hulu, and netflix. Now a new Star Trek series comes out and they want me to subscribe to see that one program? No thanks, now I'll see if I can find it somewhere else.

I thought it was the only way you get all those ARRRRR rated movies!
I'm pretty sure I would not like to live in a world in which I would never be offended.

This is exactly why I have given up on watching anyone TV show. If its not on one of the services I subscribe to, then I don't care.
Though, if I could find all of the GunSmoke episodes and a few other TV shows from that era...As they are no longer shown any where I have found.
Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.

Just by knowing the root URL of the site, will someone be able to dig out all the related sub-domains, URL branches?
For example, there could be a website-analytics tool do it.
The 'attacker' just enters the root url : www.codeproject.com
Then the sniff-tool lists all the associated links:
admin.codeproject.com
someabc.codeproject.com
www.codeproject.com\secretlinks\linkabc
www.codeproject.com\secretlinks\linkabc2
Just trying to protect our production site links.
If there's no commonly available tool can dig these things out, I would just focus only on stopping the crawlers and keep going. Peace of mind!

I don't like you calling me a tool, but yes, I have a browser. Does that answer your question?

I am not aware of a method to ask a domain server to list all of its sub-domains.
Usually these would be found via website crawls and googling with InUrl or AllInUrl parameters

It depends whether your DNS server is configured to allow zone transfers. Most aren't.
If it is, then dig on Linux, or using ls within the nslookup command on Windows, should return the complete list of A and PTR records for the domain.

Obviously, this is just "security by obscurity"; it only takes one page or email with a link to the site to be indexed by Google for your secret link to be exposed.

You could not include such things in robot.txt so that these can be interpreted. Also not to hyperlink them in the html/* files. Also not use common names for folders sub-domains that are in crawler dictionaries.

Also consider that some large entities use load balancers and such that might make discovering such information even more difficult.

Yeah, correct.  thanks.

TesseracT - King[^]
Another technical metal piece this week.
Nothing too heavy, mostly clean vocals, but still plenty of guitars and drums.
They're heavily influenced by Meshuggah and Textures who both have been in the SOTW before.
I wasn't a fan of TesseracT, but I read an interview last week and decided to give them another go.
I really like this song and now I can't wait for their new album, Sonder, to be released.

They stay nicely in balance between light & heavy, quite impressive vocals too...
Makes me think about Tool, hopefully their new album will arrive this year (??)

You think they'll ever release a new album?
And if they do could it live up to the expectations, which couldn't be higher after all this time?

I had a free moment this afternoon, so I checked my YT notes from last year and I still found this amazing compilation (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=COTrB7N7EOA) . It sounds like "Tool forever",and the order of the tracks is great. No wonder it got 3 mln views... The note says that it is based on the Fibonacci series, but how ...
