From Eyebeam's "PRISM Breakup" talks, Oct. 5, 2013. "DIY Privacy with Obfuscation" from Helen Nissenbaum. "We define obfuscation as the effort to hide information not through concealment but through noise and confusion. Tactical obfuscation may be harnessed as a mode of resistance to surveillance and security breaches in multiple technological manifestations. Because obfuscation is relatively flexible in its use by average citizens as well as by experts, it holds great promise as a universal principle of DIY privacy and security. The talk will present two lightweight systems of obfuscation: one, a mature browser extension, TrackMeNot, which shields search from surveillance and data profiling, and a second, as-yet-unnamed, which we will be unveiling,here, for the first time."
