The Internet needs an antibotty immune system, stat! My musings on the implications of the Mythos preview, and that we need to shake up how we approach building software beyond formal specification https://anil.recoil.org/notes/internet-immune-system

@avsm@amok.recoil.org reminds me of Turris's dynamic firewall (https://docs.turris.cz/basics/sentinel/dynfw/) and Razor2 antispam (https://notes.sagredo.eu/en/qmail-notes-185/razor2-pyzor-spamcop-and-dcc-setup-251.html). Would be interesting to see how distributed defense approaches could be integrated with an antibotty-like system. (The 2 examples I mention are still largely static once they get an update, but what if each host got a slightly different update, e.g. to A/B test defenses and evolve a better defense using a model)
