How to Create an Anonymous Identity

Presented at DEF CON 14 (2006), Aug. 6, 2006, 1 p.m. (50 minutes)

An Anonymous identity is difficult but not impossible to obtain. With help of international laws and loopholes a new identity can be created. This talk will demonstrate how this can be done with never before published methods. There are many reasons why a person might choose to obscure their identity and become anonymous. Several of these reasons are legal and legitimate - someone, for example, who feels threatened by someone else might attempt to hide from the threat behind various means of anonymity. There are also many illegal reasons to hide behind anonymity. Criminals typically try to keep themselves anonymous either to conceal the fact that a crime has been committed, or to avoid capture.
