Could you please explain more about who these counterparties are exactly? Do they include brokerages? I'm trying to understand why a counterparty would enter into an arrangement where a stock price change obligates them to financial li

Not sure I'm understanding you correctly - by captive portals do you mean the "challenge" that renders in a browser/webview context, commonly when joining a new network? I'm not sure that would be suitable for what

The more macOS seems to break user control of networking, the more I wonder what kind of "separate box" solutions are out there that can intermediate _outgoing_ traffic. e.g. Something like LittleSnitch on a router, where it noti
