In light of the orwellian nightmare we've built ourselves into, now is a good time for the CSClub to pick up the slack it usually picks and teach people how to be safe out there.

Topics

This information is fuzzy and subject to change. Do not trust it.

sharvey, m4, and nguenthe are adminning this term's series

Though the topics are diverse, the ones we will favour actually running are seminars that are short, to the point, and give a specific skill(set).

Note: might be worth organizing this better by theme -sharvey

  • ?????? on Physical Security (locks, safes, etc.)
  • ?????? on Crypto: terms, definitions, and why software still sucks
  • ?????? on Entropy and Randomness and why you shouldn't trust your router
  • ?????? on Network things (ARP, DNS, etc.)
  • ?????? on Side Channels (sharvey's SO will probably do this)

And remember kids, educational-use only

Hand Outs

TOR? ahh!

WPIRG cross promotion

WPIRG wants to cross-promote a "privacy forum" with us. They are imagining as an expert panel + QA session, during November. Probably the ideal distribution is csc events on the technical side ("how to shot pgp", "how to make tls go", "wat is passwurd") with WPIRG on the human-scale and politics side, with advertising to both of our cohorts for all events. Some ideas for expert participants:

  • Ian Goldberg (sharvey)
  • Michael Geist
  • RiseUp.net (WPIRG has direct contacts with them)
  • Someone from WikiLeaks (we have direct contacts with them)
  • Anarchist Tech Support (latter group seems dormant)
  • Terry Labach (this sort of thing is, actually, directly within his job description)
  • Marlie Moxinspike
  • UofT Citizen Lab People
