Confirmed 2026-08-17: home's public IP gets a 403 ForbiddenException from
AWS WAF in front of api.crowdsec.net, even on a bare unauthenticated test
request - the VPS's IP gets a normal 401 on the identical request. This is
an IP-level block unrelated to credentials, which is why LAPI kept hitting
403 on both anonymous auto-registration and console enroll with a fresh,
valid enrollment key.
Fix: HTTPS_PROXY/HTTP_PROXY pointed at a tinyproxy instance on the VPS
(bound to its Netbird interface only, not internet-reachable), reachable
from home over the existing Netbird mesh via netbird-cluster-router.
cscli/crowdsec's Go HTTP client honors standard proxy env vars.
