Why is this board so obsessed with botnet/telemetry when it's trivial to track and control network activity? You are always watching your network traffic anyway right user?

tracking when the botnet does traffic != defeating botnet

>what is TLS

Because it's a massive waste of time and I shouldn't need to do this.

if you see everything happening on your network you can control the botnet
there is no counter argument, calories in/calories out, packets in/packets out

>if you see everything happening
How. The botnet encrypts its traffic. You can only see some traffic being doe, but you don't know what it sent.

>trivial

>monitor network traffic

>use standard privacy addons/extensions
