Nick Feamster built tools that explain networks – and show their limits
In 2005, a checker he co-developed reported more than 1,000 previously undetected faults across configurations from 17 autonomous systems. The same effort to make hidden infrastructure readable later expanded to spam, broadband, censorship, smart homes and machine learning – and…
