Warning: going to this link will immediately launch a probe attempt of your internal network, by code running in your browser.<p>If you&#x27;re on your own home network and you run your own systems, this might be okay by you, since you own everything involved.<p>If you do that on a network at your office or at a coffee shop where you don&#x27;t own and operate that whole enchilada yourself, this might be considered an unwelcome attack on the network by a malicious internal individual. Namely, you.<p>Be advised that this tool doesn&#x27;t warn you about this in advance and wait for you to click a button labeled &quot;okay, please go scan my local network for me&quot;.<p>You could potentially get yourself into hot water by simply visiting this link.<p>You have been warned.
