Sensei / Re: Is the free version really worth it ?

Unbound block list only works for DNS calls. Sensei does not care about DNS (you may even use DoT or DoH), but it actually inspects the connections to see where they go.

There is a difference between allow connection, but inspect it and do not inspect at all the connection. I am afraid whitelist does the former rather than the later.

When I download the whitelist, it is empty (0 bytes).

I have an APU2 and Sensei is in bridge mode. I have whitelisted:

news.eweka.nl
sslreader.eweka.nl
81.171.92.0/24

But Sensei keeps scanning the connection, using one core of the processor above 90%.

Ok, I have reduced the number of threads from 50 to 10 and it oscilates around 560 Mbps.

I have an APU2 4 GB 4 cores @ 1 GHz (short turbo 1.4 GHz).

Sensei in bridge mode is at 96% (only one core) when downloading at 480 Mbps with 50 TLS threads to Usenet.

Oh, yes, my Sensei is in bridge mode, otherwise it can handle no more than 300 Mbps. I'm bridge mode speedtest achieves 600 Mbps (my maximum download speed), but downloading from Usenet is slower for some reason.

Delete every trace of Sensei, including os-sunnyvalley and mongodb40. pkg autoremove. Upgrade to 21.7. Reinstall Sensei.

I don't think it's ready. Kind of works, but still relies upon python 3.7 instead 3.8.

I use Linux, I use FreeBSD, I use Android, I use Windows, but I'm not scared that Microsoft or Google might know what I type.

My installation on an APU2 occupies about 13 GB in total, including toolchain for compiling binaries from source code. YMMV, I don't know how many devices you have on your LAN.

Oh, yes, I have no swap file, I killed the swap partition.

I mean: just by analyzing publicly available data you would have a better knowledge of what I do on the internet and what my views are than by merely analyzing my Sensei logs.

I'm not overly concerned with privacy, I just need something that works. My websurf data are boring rather than sensitive.

Sensei / Re: Blocked by Akamai

« on: July 13, 2021, 03:01:23 am »

So? Maybe your IPs are blacklisted. Or it does not like GDPR countries.

I am using Sensei in blocking mode (moderate blocking and blocking ads apps and all free security choices), and I can open most websites, except those which ask me to disable my ad blocker.

Or maybe you're using an IP blocklist e.g. from SpamHaus. These work independently of Sensei.

Steps 15-30 from my traceroute to bild.de are lost in limbo. But I can open bilde.de with no problems.
