What: Presentation of the svartkast technology
raccoon xor from the GHS munitions factory presents the svartkast technology and how to deploy cipherspace nodes in existing infrastructure. The svartkast can be used to create secure and completely decentralized (owner-free) channels of communication to be used in situations where freedom of speech is critical, and in situations where it is impossible to interact with the ordinary Internets without having a traceable origin. Example scenarios are during war-time, in regimes that throttle the Internet connectivity (Iran, China). Usage of svartkast, or similar technology, is however definitely not limited to these circumstances. Everyone has the right to communicate freely, without corporations and authorities surveilling our correspondence.

Damn smokes, missed most of the presentation.

The idea with the Blackthrow is to build a small computer that can be hidden inside government agencies or corporations. It connects to the TOR or I2P networks and publishes its SSH server as a hidden service in any of these networks.

It’s for an educational purpose. Building it will give you a learning experience about network and the technologies used.

It’s a proof of concept that it’s impossible to stop people to talk about whatever they want.
