- 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.

- Every network call returns a result whatever fails, not only the exceptions .NET
usually throws: on Android the HTTPS client is the platform's own stack, and a network
switch mid-request throws others. The outside test as a whole cannot throw; sharing the
link falls back to copying it. A last guard (the UI thread, unobserved tasks, Android's
raiser) writes errors.log in the app folder and keeps the app running; nothing is sent.
- On mobile data the app no longer probes the operator's gateway as if it were a home
router: the router card says there is none, a private address on the phone with another
public one is the operator's address sharing (CGNAT) and is drawn as its shared exit, the
public IPv4 is held by that exit, and the provider's notes are labelled as being about its
home lines. These were "router not answering" and "can't tell" on an Iliad phone.
- The route's routers appear as stops on the path's wires: the operator's internal ones
before its exit, the public ones with their network number towards the internet.
- The download speed is timed after the first quarter of the sample, once the connection
has ramped up; the path no longer shows the address block's registry country.
- Two new strings, drafted in every language.

Phases two and three ship together, because their code grew in the same
files. With consent the app asks the router to open 80, 443 and a high
port for ten minutes (UPnP, NAT-PMP or PCP), and the server, holding a
single-use ticket bound to the caller's own address, connects back and
must get an HMAC only the app can give; the mappings are removed after the
run and remembered until then, so a crash cannot leave one open. Hairpin
is tried from inside. Two STUN servers, the outside one first, tell easy
from hard NAT.
Mail gets port 25 to Gmail and Outlook, the reverse name and five
blocklists through the user's own resolver, network-wide UCEPROTECT
listings counted as a caution. DNS, speed against the server (four at a
time, twelve an hour per address) and the device follow, and six uses
(website, home from outside, files, game server, fediverse, mail) close
the run as possible, possible with a named workaround, or can't tell.
Findings can be shared after reading the exact JSON: a file per submission
under the unit's state directory, ten a day per address, deletable by the
token the app keeps, swept after twelve months; /privacy says all of it in
English and Italian. QR codes lead to the downloads. Every language carries
every string.

MeWeb.Core runs seven checks concurrently and reports each as it settles:
online or behind a login page, this connection, the public IPv4 and IPv6
seen from v4./v6.meweb, the provider from a built-in map, the router
(UPnP IGD, NAT-PMP and PCP, read-only), address sharing (router WAN
against the echo, TTL hops only as a hint), and the history kept on the
device. The app draws the path from this device to the internet and lights
it node by node, with a card per check and a sheet listing every host it
contacts.
The provider map is iptoasn's table compressed to 2.1 MB by
tools/knowledge.cs and built before every app release; eleven Italian
provider profiles carry each fact with who said it, the source and the
month. The server gains a download page (en, it) and /download/{platform}
from the latest Gitea release.

The language list comes from CLDR (official in a UN member state, plus the
six UN languages), with autonyms and text direction supplied for the 21
that ICU does not know. Strings move from resx to one JSON file per
language, looked up by code, so a language unknown to ICU or MSBuild still
loads; tools/strings.cs checks keys and placeholders in CI. Arabic, Hindi
and Chinese drafts prove right-to-left and system-font fallback.

The first screen (online or not, a Check button, every language with a
draft notice), the desktop and Android heads, the server's /api/info and
/api/ip, a release tool that builds deb, rpm, a Windows exe, macOS zips,
a signed APK and the server, and the Gitea workflows that run it. Rules
adapted from passolo; AGPL-3.0.
