Steganography with Flickr

yiangocy writes "Steganography is not something new, there have been techniques and available programs for hiding data in pictures/audio files for a long time now. However, one step further is using popular online photo sharing sites, such as Flickr in hiding your data, successfully."

I'm Sorry, the posting you just made is against the Slashdot posting terms.
We believe you are a terrorist trying to hide data within your non-conformist post text.

After a detailed analysis of the contents of your posting, the waveform coeficients do not conform to standard slashdot thinking, more precisely, your posting failed to contain the phrases "first post", "in soviet russia" or "hot grits".

Please remove the hidden message and try again.

So THAT'S where the WMD are...

stegnography in Mona Lisa

[woverly]

A couple of years ago newspapers and network news showed the cabin layout of a 747 shown inside the Mona Lisa, supposively used by terrorists. What supprised me was how little attention was payed to the fact that nobody was giving credit to Leonardo da Vinci for inventing the 747.

A much better solution

Would be to zip all your files together, encrypt them, then share them on Kazaa as "hot XXX teen pporn pr0n tryout mother daughter incest dog sex sex sex.avi." You data will never be lost completely ;-)
