thepraandClaude Opus 5.5 d18caed157 me-web? 0.6.0: provider notes from shared checks, and the internet seen from eight places
Build / Desktop, server and tools (push) Successful in 1m17s
Release / Every platform, the server, the release (push) Successful in 8m13s
- Notes on providers in any country: findings people choose to share are counted on the publisher's server, one
  vote per network. A total appears on the provider card only after a person has reviewed it, and only when at
  least five different networks of that provider agree four times in five; the card says how many agree.
  Notes researched by hand still come first, and on mobile data the totals for the mobile network replace the
  notes about home lines.
- "Connected to the internet through" now comes from eight RouteViews collectors (Oregon, Ashburn, London,
  Sao Paulo, Johannesburg, Dubai, Singapore, Sydney) instead of one in Oregon, each counting the same, so
  networks far from the United States are described from nearby. A network that only exchanges traffic with a
  collector's neighbour is no longer listed as one of its upstreams.
- Ready for measuring servers outside Europe: once the publisher adds one, the app times each server and runs
  the speed test and the test from outside against the closest. None exists yet, so nothing changes today.
- When me-web? has no notes on a provider, it says that findings shared at the end of a check help write them.
- The privacy page states the rule for publishing totals.

thepraandClaude Opus 5.5 eb8be87284 me-web? 0.5: the shared exit measured, the route from the server, the network's upstreams
Build / Desktop, server and tools (push) Successful in 59s
Release / Every platform, the server, the release (push) Successful in 8m42s
- Behind your provider's shared address, me-web? now shows how its exit hands out ports
  (kept, one after another, from one block, or at random), the range it gave this device,
  and how many customers may share the address at most; the estimate sharpens with each
  check on the same address.
- It tests whether two devices behind the same address can reach each other (hairpin), and
  how long an unused connection stays open: the card says "measuring" for about two minutes
  after the check, then the answer.
- With the test from outside, the publisher's server also traces the route back to your
  address: your provider's routers and the networks in between appear on the path, with
  their names.
- The provider card says which networks your provider reaches the internet through.
- On mobile data, the path shows the operator and the type of network (5G, 4G) read from the
  phone; on Android 13 and later the phone asks once for permission to read the network type.
- The speed card adds the round trip to the publisher's server.
- The network data now comes from the publisher's server, refreshed there from open sources:
  iptoasn.com, DB-IP Lite (CC BY 4.0), the University of Oregon Route Views Project (CC BY 4.0)
  and the Android Open Source Project's list of mobile operators (Apache 2.0); the release
  notes list each source's date and checksum.
- Source links in the cards wrap instead of being cut off.
- New strings, drafted in every language.
