    Ah yes, the story of universities worldwide.

    Uni: come to us to learn about technology and science! We know best!
    Also uni: utterly fails at anything with technology

    Not worldwide though.
    I went to TU Chemnitz and they know their shit.
    Eduroam is secured with per-app passwords and an ssl-cert.
    Eduroam-APs are separating devices into subnets, thus making port-scanning harder.
    User-auth is done with their own openid-server.
    Their entire infrastructure, including desktops, is linux based (windows only as VMs).
    They even host a gitlab server for the students.

    @metamourge I mean mine has a private GitHub instance and similar things for eduroam, but nobody gets given the cert for it so you select "do not verify cert". It seems to me that there is a layer of incompetent people who try to do way too much over a layer of very highly competent people with too much to do.
