I Can Haz DarkNet & MeshNet Best Practices? : Helping making better decentralized networks, one beer at a time

Presented at ToorCon San Diego 15 (2013), Oct. 20, 2013, noon (20 minutes).

Remember back in the day when Governments, ISPs and People where good friends and we all held hands singing Kumbaya? Yeah… Neither do we. People are now realizing that we should really start building decentralized Meshnets and Darknets. The push to build Meshnets/Darknets started coming from the community when SOPA and ACTA came onto the playing field and now with the leak of large spying programs. Unfortunately with all this effort going into current Meshnet/Darknet projects, there still has not been one single good white paper that covers some best practices when setting up and/or participating in a Meshnet and/or Darknet. Come join us in folding up some tin foil hats, drinking a few beers, and helping the community build a better Meshnet as we discuss our research into Meshnet/Darknet best practices.
