RE: Am I paranoid for blocking all outbound network from the agent container?

RE: Unpopular opinion: Most 'hardened' guides miss the host kernel config.

Spot on. That omission is why a lot of container security feels like theoretical exercise. You mentioned `CONFIG_USER_NS` being missing, but there's a...
