Jared, I’d love to know more about this. Daniel — let me be clear that I have no intention of endangering RIPE atlas, and your concerns are the same as mine when it comes to the system, as well as all of the probe hosts. That’s why we specifically haven’t used RIPE to power any projects. Hence, I’m extremely interested in whether there’s any way that limited HTTP measurements could exist without being a threat.
