Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

What Type of Research Can Bring Value to the Community?
I think cryptography is a decentralizing force in general, though its intersection with ML is small, Also, related things, steganography, differential privacy, federated learning, all things that tend to decentralize. Anonymizing text fingerprint with LLMs, ML-ish censor evading algo , possibility of a decentralized vector database

AdBlocking as a Service
China just blocks ESNI entirely, possibly Iran too, and I'd assume once ECH becomes popular they'd do just that. The paper points out it's trivial to defeat the blocking, but there needs to be at least a client or server-side modification, which is kinda out of scope for your app & service. Would Cloudflare join the cat & mouse game? Probably not, considering in China they choose to cooperate with the local entity.

Google’s top security teams unilaterally shut down a counterterrorism operation
> The fact that Western countries aren't spending billions to comprehensively subvert the Great Firewall is a significant strategic failure.
I have strong opinions in this matter.
The GFW is only possible because of metadata leaks that Western countries are exploiting too, for security and surveillance, or whatever.
Suppose Western countries start investing billions in subverting the great firewall, our own infrastructure and economy would suffer too.
I'll give you an example, I tried to train https://github.com/Kkevsterrr/geneva against a CheckPoint and a Fortinet ... It's not been fun for those "next gen firewalls", and CheckPoint is a NASDAQ-100, Fortinet an S&P 500.

Thoughts on RethinkDNS. Firewall, Privacy, Ads, all-in-one app for privacy.
sky is a stub resolver, which after stripping out all request information, forwards the dns query to both Cloudflare and Google DoH servers (code), and replies from which ever responds back the fastest. Both the client app and the resolver (server) are open source, so if you find any leaks and know what's up, we're open to changes.

Using Cloudflare Gateway as an alternative to Pi-hole to block ads, trackers and other bad domains
There is also https://github.com/serverless-dns/serverless-dns that works on user-configurable list combinations using Cloudflare Workers (100k queries per day), though it can't be integrated with WARP.
-
Logs? Max or Sky?
Max (fly.io) and Sky (cloudflare) are both are no logs. You can examine the code to ascertain this (here) and also check the version of the code we've deployed too (via github actions).

Any future plans of adding an ad-blocking DNS server?
You can selfhost your own adblocking server on Cloudflare Workers and edit the upstream, you get Quad9 malware filtering, Cloudflare's nearest servers, and whatever blocking list you want.

RethinkDNS
Took us wayyy longer than originally planned, because not only personal life got in the way, we also run our own resolver (open source) maintaining which took away some of our time too. Especially, as the costs were mounting, we couldn't ignore it and had to optimize it as much as we could (which we since have).
-
Encrypted DNS, what's the point?
Even those who weren't interested in self-hosting might spend a couple of minutes hosting their own DNS proxy since it's much more flexible and don't require root or dedicated port (at least with DoH).

Meet the triumvirate: rec, sec, and pec
I swear this idea wasn't generated over chats and coffee with GPT3; though, most of the code for this feature was most certainly written by it (commit). Be careful with your reviews of this feature then; you don't want to upset a sentient Optimus Prime AI.

NextDNS vs Control D as compared by Control D owner
If you are deploying your own rdns, then logs and analytics are up and running (check the github readme). NRDs and other things will happen as we near launch (in a month or two, perhaps). But we are just 2 developers, and our time is really all spent on the Android app, and not the service...
