It's a cryptographic key exchange system that allows nodes to open Wireguard tunnels between each other. They have a nice product, but I don't like how it spies on your “private” network by default: https://tailscale.com/kb/1011/log-mesh-traffic

If you want to self-host, use NetBird instead.

Where spies == logging and they tell you, and provide clear opt out instructions

  • Imagine thinking most people read Knowledge Base articles and don't just take the defaults.

    They even manage to squeeze some FUD into the opt-out toggle's name.
