I had the chance to work with OWS Tech Ops in Zuccotti park to set up the local internet infrastructure. spends most of my days now doing data analysis for financial institutions and network monitoring for p2p networks.

Be your own NSA: Regain IO control

This is what the internet infrastructure looks like today, and for most of us, our interactions with the stack never falls below the Application layer.

I want to bring light to the questions like,
What is chrome doing when you are visiting a website?
What is skype doing on your computer when you make a call?

Show off some new equipment in network DIY, e.g. self contained battery powered openWRT routers.

The goal is to educate and show people how to be their own gate keepers of their network, by man-in-the-middle attacking themselves to see their own network traffic and grant control of what type of data you should and should not allow.
