silicon valley thinks they own your data because you agreed to a 50 page tos nobody read. surveillance capitalism is just a polite term for modern serfdom.

New guide: UFW Firewall for Bitcoin and Lightning nodes.
Most nodes I've seen are running Bitcoin Core + LND with no firewall active. The default Linux behavior is to accept connections on every port. That's not a hardening issue โ it's a surface area problem.
This guide covers the complete UFW setup:
โ Default deny incoming, allow outgoing
โ Which ports to open (8333, 9735) and which to never expose (8332, 10009, 8080)
โ SSH rate limiting + Fail2ban integration
โ How to audit what's actually visible from outside with nmap
โ Common mistakes that break node sync or LNBits after enabling UFW
The firewall doesn't protect you from everything. It protects you from the mistakes you don't know you've made yet.
