Yes, due to the GDPR, they are no longer allowed to disclose private information.
Depending on the registrar they either respond to whois requests with just nothing or just with themself.

99% of registrars do it the right way, so the domain is in your name. What Njalla is doing is not really common, and they usually market it as a unique feature.

Your email showing up at eurid is a good sign :)

Nope, when you register a domain at, for example, Namecheap, this domain is legally yours. It is registered to your name, and even if Namecheap doesn't like you, they can't just take the domain away from you. (excluding for legal reasons, of course)

If they do anyway, you can take legal action and complain at the NIC.

Njalla offers domains by proxy. So they register the domain you would like to have for you and let you use them. However, they have registered the domain in their name, so they own the domain. If Njalla decides tomorrow that you shouldn't use the domain anymore or they want to sell it to someone else, they have the full legal right to do so.

tl;dr Good service if you want an anonymous domain you don't really care about. If you want a domain for something important, don't use them.

I can't do math in my brain at all.. It's not like I'm stupid or something, but it just doesn't work

Even stuff like really simple additions 😭

Good to see familiar people here 🙂

Just keep in mind it's not your domain; it's theirs.

Well, I am very interested in all kinds of technical stuff, from Hosting/Servers to microcontrollers, networks, BGP and so on.

The Bunker was a vast playground for me. Obviously, there was the data centre part with servers and a lot of network stuff. But you also had a lot of other stuff to play with. I've built a system to open the (otherwise manually operated) bunker door over the network. So when someone wants in, you don't need to walk through the whole complex. Instead, you just need to press a button on your phone.

In general, the whole bunker was connected. Today you probably would describe it as an enormous smart home. The only difference is that the system was like 30-40 years old. So everything was primarily done with straightforward setups, relays, comparators etc. No stupid cloud and proprietary protocols etc. So it was easily possible to integrate it with our own management system.

It was cool to try stuff in productive environments within the network and hosting area. I do work a lot on traffic analysis and DDoS protection stuff. Sure, you can test some stuff in a dedicated development/testing environment, but a lot of other stuff just makes sense to test with actual real-world traffic of a decent size.

So altogether, there was a hell lot of exciting stuff for me to play with, and I always had the freedom to work on whatever I wanted 🙂

To be fair, I managed it quite well without any medication.

I got really lucky and usually had a lot of space and freedom at work etc.
So, most of the time, I did the usual ADHD stuff, being there but not really focused, so also not really productive.
But because I had so much freedom, it was pretty easy to compensate during the more focused hours.

Also, the broad knowledge I obtained about random stuff just by wondering around was usually well-received and often helpful.

Unfortunately, that doesn't really work anymore in my current situation.. So thinking about getting an appointment at a doctor to get some medication started. But.. well.. don't like doctors in the first place, my last diagnosis was when I was 9 or so, so I probably need a new one. And there are waiting lists of months because they are just full, and procrastination and so on...

Not really anything there that actually pushes me to do so :/

Don't worry, pressure usually helps
The night before the exam, you probably will start to study 😅

27 now.. still believe.. 😕

 

I worked there for a while, also when the bunker was raided by the police.

My main focus was the network, but because the team was relatively small, I did a bit of everything 😅

Ask whatever you want 🙂
