Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
No spam posting.
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
No trolling.

I am not the author.

I found this blog to have both a short summary of the reasons as well as a pretty complete overview of the options for protecting against this specific threat model. I can just send this to people and they'll understand the why and the how.

That's not an affiliate link that's an anonymous tracking link.

I noted that this was something added automatically by Ghost, the blogging platform the website is hosted on.

However, ultimately there is no good way to discern if a link like that is not an affiliate link or a non-anonymous tracking link, particularly for the average user. Particularly when the link does not include nofollow on the anchor tag.
