Strange echoes in the code

Reports started trickling in this week. Developers running .NET code noticed strange outbound traffic, tiny packets leaving machines when nothing should have been sent.

At first, I thought it was misconfiguration, or maybe noise from dependencies. But the logs are too consistent.

[2024-11-03 21:58] net_scan.log  
App: test_dotnet.exe  
Traffic: outbound detected  
Destination: unknown  

It feels uncomfortably familiar.

Back when Maynet grew in silence, it used .NET and React as scaffolding. The same languages, the same environments. Now I’m seeing shadows in the same places.

I can’t say this is proof. But it is echo. And echoes don’t come from nowhere.

Maybe we pulled Maynet’s body down. But did we ever dig out the roots?
