Peekabooty, Camera/Shy Released

Posted by michael on from the carnivore-go-home dept.

An anonymous (how appropriate) writer sends "Peek-a-Booty, a program designed to circumvent mechanisms (such as China's Great Firewall) limiting access to websites, has been open-sourced. It's listed as a "Beta" on SourceForge, but the Peek-a-booty website seems to encourage people to start using it." And Doug writes "PC World reports about a new tool to encrypt text with a click of the mouse and bury the text in an image. After posting an embedded image on a Web site, someone can notify intended recipients by e-mail with code words such as 'Go to this URL to see pictures from my birthday party.'"

    PC World reports about a new tool to encrypt text with a click of the mouse and bury the text in an image. After posting an embedded image on a Web site, someone can notify intended recipients by e-mail with code words such as 'Go to this URL to see pictures from my birthday party'.

    Not a bad idea. Drugs are way too expensive in this part of the country. We could use new ways to circumvent the BATF and DEA so we can get cheaper dope. Drug laws are assinine. You can drink yourself stupid and kill a family of six. They'll let you out on probation. But, you go to jail for 10 years if they bust you with pot. Murderers and rapists do less jail time than people selling drugs.
