My ISP hosteurope told me that a network modernization is happening. Fine, I thought, can only be good. But are you aware that the ISP controls your router?
Despite the fact that I don’t see a change in the connection like better performance, I was really astonished when I got two emails from my router.
It stated, that the ISP had remotely updated it to the latest firmware.
And with a second email I got informed, that the ISP had remotely restarted the router.
This means, you have no control over the router by yourself. It’s just the question of how far this can go. Means, does anyone behind the ISP also has these options?
I bought the router long time ago, and fortunately it’s still working fine.
And I’m not aware that I gave the ISP the right to do anything with it, except setting up a connection with his network, of course.
An option to secure our food supply in the future can be given by vertical farming.
The quite nice idea is that you can perform that type of farming everywhere. And the results what you can grow and harvest are quite amazing.
There are also options to automate the operation of such farms quite a lot with the help of robots, like in plenty of other fields like dressing.

Free HTTPS certificates via Let’s encrypt are a great step forward. Specifically for non commercial organisations as these organisations often don’t have the money for expensive commercial certificates.
In three years they issued over 380 million HTTPS certificates.
As google is now ranking down websites without HTTPS this is also an important issue for the SEO ranking.
And if you have access to the comand line of your server you can setup a cron job to automatically renew your certificates.
