Cory Doctorow’s latest column, “When I’m dead, how will my loved ones break my password?“, gives a few good solutions to the problem of what to do with those encrypted hard-drives and network passwords, should you (or your loved one) pass away. Some people have commented that these solutions might be a tad paranoid. Is there such a thing as being “too paranoid” when it comes to your private data?
Can you really be too paranoid?

ICMPTX in Debian
May 17th, 2009ICMPTX is a program that allows a user with root privileges to create a virtual network link between two computers, encapsulating data inside of ICMP packets. The program was accepted into Debian yesterday. Also, Thomer M. Gil has written a good article on how to set it up, both proxy-side and client-side.
Oh btw
May 13th, 2009- I will be working for the Tor project in this year’s Google Summer of Code. I have started a new blog for GSoC-related updates.
- I am excited about Diego’s accepted GSoC proposal for Debian; debbugs web UI.
- I’m in NM.
- I will be in London during June and July. Any Debian-people up for a geeknic or something?
- I’m looking forward to meeting the people involved in the London Hackspace project and I hope they find a place soon.
