Comment on Show HN: Open-Source Data Anonymization for Developers

Comments

This is cool – as an open source founder, I've wondered about how to keep things transparent while protecting people's privacy. What’s your general approach to public databases, and when does it make sense to make them public?

Thanks! Yeah we generally recommend not making your databases public and instead connecting to them using a bastion host. We support this at Neosync. Also, ideally, not connecting to a live DB and instead a snapshot or back up. A read replica could work as well but a snapshot is better.
