the mighty email
When was the last time you received a real email? I don’t mean automated promotions or spam. I mean a genuine, thoughtful email sent by another human being. In an era dominated by instant messages, social media DMs, and quick texts, the thoughtful, well-crafted email stands out as a powerful communication tool—a modern-day equivalent of the handwritten letter. They are not the tiny bursts of useless information that we are used to.
This is my first real post on the page, and one that despite what I wrote in my introduction, is technical. It is also an article that I wrote almost a year ago, originally on LinkedIn.
the problem
We live in a world that is ever more dependent on the Internet. Yet, even today, most sites you query send you their address without any protection against DNS spoofing.
DNS spoofing enables bad actors to hijack your traffic, lead your customers to malicious sites, and steal their data.
hi, i’m Ákos 👋
I’m a lifelong learner originally from a small coal-mining town in Hungary. Driven by an intense curiosity and a natural affinity for languages and systems, I now study Computer Science at the University of Szeged while working as a Systems Engineer at one of the largest domain registrar, infrastructure and webhosting provider in Hungary.
I created this little site as a creative outlet, a place to document my projects, share insights, and explore not only technology but also diverse cultural, linguistic, and philosophical ideas. You can expect thoughts on fascinating technologies, reflections on culture and languages, and occasionally, musings on politics, business, and everyday life. This site serves one main purpose: to provide a space for creativity and genuine exploration.
