Have a short introduction session before the live translation where each speaker says a couple of words like “hi, I am John”
These then can be used to pick up on the current speaker.
Square is probably the most similar competitor (in the US at least). Paypal has some similarities. Venmo in some ways. Clover. Ayden. Stax. Wave. There are others. Of course, most banks can also provide credit card terminals and merchant services for business customers too.
I use such lists on my server's router and Firewall to block incoming connections from those IPs and bad ASNs, including with geographic blocking. Less traffic, smaller attack surface, less trouble.
As others implied, it doesn't make much sense to be afraid from port scans from the Kiwi Farms servers (maybe if you host ActivityPub services and want to block any Mastodon servers associated with them, or something like that). A lot of threats come from the big cloud providers networks, which are not so good at keeping out threat actors.
As with DShield (a similar collection by SANS Internet Storm Center), I have a problem with the TOR Exit Node category. It seems rather like 'every IP that has ever used TOR'.
These lists are for firewalls. How you get the list on your firewall and keep it updated depends on the firewall itself. Not all firewalls support importing a list of CIDRs or IPs.
I use Plivo (which only allows US/CA numbers to be ported to, which is why I didn’t mention it because the OP said they were from the UK). Pretty much anything out there can support this though with very little scripting.
We use them as a hotel booking affiliate. What other services are there that we could possibly use? There aren't really any alternatives. The other businesses are the same.
This fabric shaver [0] was an absolute life shaver (sorry for the pun). I have many jumpers that looked really ugly and now have a new life. My wife also uses it for her jumpers. Take it everywhere we go.
