Cloudflare DoH (DNS over HTTPS)

Currently all DNS queries are being queried over normal HTTP that can be intercepted and the hacker/scammer can then respond with a different IP address, misleading you to a clone of the original website that the hacker owns. This can be avoided by installing Cloudflare's own app, cloudflared, on your machine to route all your DNS queries over HTTPS which is secure and can't be altered. It's also a lot faster! 💡 Learn More

This is a guide on how to install cloudflared to query Cloudflare's DNS server over an HTTPS connection.

👨‍🔧 Installation

1. Install Homebrew if you don't have it

Send uncaught Exceptions from Android Wear to Android

This is a short Gist showing how I transmit any uncaught exceptions happening in the Wearable part of my App to the connected Smartphone/Tablet. This is necessary because Android Wear devices are not directly connected to the Internet themselves.

My OS X “VPN only” Setup For #30C3

You should never let passwords or private data be transmitted over an untrusted network (your neighbor’s, the one at Starbucks or the company) anyway, but on a hacker congress like the #30C3, this rule is almost vital.

Hackers get bored easily, and when they’re bored, they’re starting to look for things to play with. And a network with several thousand connected users is certainly an interesting thing to play with. Some of them might start intercepting the data on the network or do other nasty things with the packets that they can get.

If these packets are encrypted, messing with them is much harder (but not impossible! – see the end of this article). So you want your packets to be always encrypted. And the best way to do that is by using a VPN.
