I don’t need help, it’s just too implausible for me not to be curious.

Aside, it’s been fascinating anonymously watching this network evolve over the past decade as a citizen-user who has business in the building. I’ve been battling with the faceless network admins trying to find ways to access my home lab year-after-year.

First they blocked my personal domain because I tried to reach vpn.mydomain.com. Then I couldn’t use OpenVPN at all (or I was too green at the time to bypass). Next, Wireguard worked for a while until it didn’t. Now tailscale is working but I’m forced to use the slow DERP servers to reach home. I might try Headscale with a different personal domain next.

My next project is a little more radical - hiding an old pi 3B on the network as an exit node on that network. Then I can use the state-owned IP instead of my home one when websites are dicks about third-party VPN IPs.
