Our goal is unfettered and untraceable access to information.

The technology behind communication networks must remain beyond the surveillance and censorship capabilities of governments, corporations, and other potentially malicious parties. In the modern age telecommunications have replaced firearms as a citizens' tool in the defense of their civil liberties, and the importance of access to information, freedom of speech, and the capability to self-organize cannot be stressed enough.

The 2nd Amendment of the US Constitution protects citizens right to bear arms and to form militia, recognizing a citizen's dual obligations to be both patriot and watchdog; citizens should be equipped both to defend their government from enemies and to defend themselves from a tyrannous government.

Our jtunnel software has been successfully used to route past the “Great Firewall of China”, as well as other government- and corporation-imposed Internet censors.

This project serves to house research on cyberdissidence and 21st-century activism – its history, theory, tactics, technical challenges, and evolution.

My undergraduate thesis on cyberdissidence, jtunnel, and the presence of political activism Includes a philosophical framework for dissidence, historical comparisons, and information on current grassroots political movements.

Exotic packet routing techniques to bypass censors and firewalls

• NSTX tunneling – aka IP-over-DNS
• ICMP tunneling – aka ping tunneling
• SSH-over-HTTPS – make encrypted data connections look like ecommerce
• SOCKS proxies – multi-protocol catch-all

• Tor with Firefox using torbutton + Privoxy – Macs, Linux, Win
• Torpark – Win-only Firefox bundled with Tor (Privoxy/Vidalia) – from the cDC/Hacktivismo

• Cracking Wifi networks with Kismac – using a Macbook Pro and a compatible USB wifi stick (Prism 3)

A trusted, all-volunteer botnet & darknet, which can be used as either a straight or anonymizing proxy server. The jtunnel software defaults to the central Dubnet gateway, which hands them off round-robin.

The Dubnet also serves as the development environment for the collusive P2P experiment. For more info see the Dubnet page
