Episode 262 – Solutions: Pirate Internet

03/16/201312 Comments

From SOPA and PIPA to ACTA to CISPA to the TPP and now back to CISPA, internet activists have been caught up in a deliberately bewildering game of whack-a-mole with freedom-crushing legislation. Now, ISPs are doing an end run around the whole legislative process altogether and voluntarily collaborating with the entertainment industry to spy on their own customers. All of this is enough to leave concerned netizens demoralized, and in the war of attrition that is exactly the goal. Join us today on The Corbett Report as we explore a real, grassroots, alternative solution to the problem of internet censorhip that can help to end this government/corporate control over our communication once and for all.

    Hi James,

    Regarding Wireless Mesh Network security (someone gave this link to me when I mentioned Mesh Networking as an alternative to the ‘Net… thought I’d share it).

    I was very interested in the guy CNet was interviewing at 31:30 because he was very articulate and extremely knowledgeable about wifi and mesh technology. It became a very convoluted search to find out more about him. The CNet website no longer carries this video.

    Eventually I sussed out the following:
    Devabhaktuni (Sri) Srikrishna
    the founding (2000) Chief Technology Officer for Tropos Networks, Inc.
    He had left Tropos sometime before this CNet interview.

    Tropos Networks Inc. builds large scale wireless networks to communicate with fixed and mobile assets, as well as mobile workers, in the field.

    Tropos Networks Inc. was acquired in June 2012 by publicly traded ABB Group, a Swedish-Swiss multinational technology company, headquartered in Zurich.
