    Tail Scale VPN

    I was game to try Tailscale but now I'm not sure. It seems that I need to create an account using my Apple, Google, etc. ID to use their apps and services. Then I will be connected through their servers which are collecting data from my usage. Am I correct? I thought I would ask here to be sure...

    Thanks for confirming that for me, that is what I took from the earlier discussion about this. With Andy's explanation above, I was wondering also about the "official" recommendation.

    If they were mine and I had a problem with UV I might try to shield the cams with some form of a shield, an awning or at least a sheet of tinted translucent or transparent material of whatever sort. But if the problem is heat, the former is all I would offer.

    Oh, wait, I just reread both posts. "chipset/sensor" caught my attention. If my understanding is correct, this is a very significant change with varying possibilities, better or worse. Interesting.
