I'd love to take this course but I know next to nothing about CS. I'm good with computers and I learned python and I can do a lot on the command line -- but anybody can do that. Basically, do people think I can float this, or is a lot of background knowledge necessary?
What does using Google's DNS servers imply, traffic-sniffing-wise? Are they monitoring at all? Not that my ISP isn't monitoring, but somehow I don't mind that. I'm wondering more about Google monitoring my traffic in relation to my online identities.
