  • It is not just Ikea that is using Roblox to expand its reach. Netflix is also coming to Roblox, with the streaming giant recently revealing its “digital theme park” on the gaming platform, known as Nextworld. This will essentially acts as a hub where players can access areas, characters and games based on Netflix properties, such as Stranger Things and One Piece.

    Seems like a way to get branding imprinted on young people. Plus IKEA is a budget brand, so makes sense to target future college dorm folks.











  • When authenticating with git over SSH, the private key should be considered secret and well protected.

    That means the corresponding public key that was uploaded to the git server is enough to authenticate and no username is required. However, a password protected privare key is possible and extra layers of security can be added to the authentication mechanism.

    As far as resource based attacks based on public key searching, I doubt many servers have significant enough public keys on a single host to even notice. Most repos are siloed and have specific teams/individuals assigned to them, so only a small number of public keys even gets loaded.

    I dont know enough about the server side mechanics to be sure, but imo the attack surface is pretty small.
