Testing and developing a web service. Run the service on your localhost, like straight from your IDE with a debugger attached, and get a public internet facing bore.pub address for it. You can then point anything at it--your staging/integration or even production service, or maybe just a friend or coworker who wants to see in development work.

Yep, those are all good use cases where TCP tunneling comes in handy — basically, how can I get someone to connect to me?

For me to use it it would need to support https and 443 on bore.pub
