Everyone talks about privacy and anonymity in terms of usage of technology, but rarely talk about the day-to-day applications of technology to enhance that desired privacy and anonymity. This talk starts where the others end -- the application of technological solutions to real world problems.
Once you've answered the question of "if" when it comes to encryption, steganography, covert channels, the next questions such as "how" and "when" need to be answered. Do you know when to use (and not use) encryption? Are there implementation issues in using covert channels? Does a healthy level of paranoia online translate to your offline world as well?
This talk will not only cover online issues such as the proper deployment of covert channels and encryption, but other real life issues such as dealing with direct deposits, handling your bank accounts, what to shred and why you should burn it, travel tips, and many other issues. Expect a lively and entertaining talk from a paranoid for the paranoid.
