Damn, do I have to shut down my wireguard VPN now? Memsafety is not everything. IMHO, everyone should write security relevant code in Ada Spark. There is reasons not to do it, I guess. At least now one can rewrite it in Rust an post it on HN...

Does Wireguard not do a privilege downgrade? That seems important. I know it needs some additional privileges, and therefore (right now?) will not run in a container (which is annoying), but after it has set up an interface, why doesn't it back off its privileges? I really want to try Wireguard but kept getting hung up on stuff like this.
