--- author: anarchyplanet html_head: '<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/htmlize.css"/>' title: Anarchy Planet Projex --- Introduction ============ The purpose of this project is to protoype a process of collaborating with strangers over the internet on mutual interests, with a trajectory toward infosec/osint topics. Its current manifestion is a series of 'Anarchy Planet Tech Tuesdays' tutorials where we get together Tuesdays 8PM EST to go over a topic of choice. Goals include: - creating documentation of our proesses for internal use (and possibly for sharing in the future if it doesn't suck) - discovering and using (and possibly developing) FOSS tools, in particular tools for collaboration - creating a 'website' for keeping track of our notes that users can edit, with some sort of version control (hopefully git) Feel free to generate your own tutorial topics, with the constraint that the tutorials should be: 1. short. something we can do together start to finish in 1-2 hours. 2. tangible. we should have something by the end that we didn't have before, such as an email address with gpg enabled. 3. FOSS all day erry day bootsrapping ------------ This project has an implicit tagline: "Can we even get one tutorial off the ground?" We all have felt the frustration of starting a project full of enthusiasm and motivation to accomplish huge goals, only for the initial excitement to wane as people get busy and drift on to other tasks. So this project is about starting small. Can we even complete one tutorial together? Can we break our grand plans into tiny projects that we can execute without requiring massive amounts of people capable of devoting massive amounts of time and energy? And if we can't, how can we hope to accomplish larger and messier goals without repeating the cycle of early enthusiasm and eventual burnout? tutorials --------- Another motivation is to develop a process of creating documentation through 'user testing'-- that is, understanding what someone needs to know in order to accomplish a task, and then providing that information and that information only. I find this more helpful than providing someone the entire history of the internet and expecting them to develop a deep understanding of every related concept and skill every time they try to read a tutorial. Ultimately I hope this will result in building a shareable corpus of knowledge, but even if this task fails we will at least have the pieces we create which should be already useful in themselves. Finally, this project is about building rapport with our collaborators as we go through this process together. At the very least we will end up with onboarding documentation that can help new people who come into the process late, or who decide to go through their own process. And at best we will also have data about whether or not a group of loosely-affiliated strangers on the internet can collaborate together to work toward their goals, leveraging existing infrastructure that exists by keeping track of their process and developing strategies for sharing that process. Can we? Tech Tuesday Topics =================== - setting up IRC to run through Tor (hexchat, irssi, freenode w/ tor) - Inspircd, Atheme Services, setting up channels - Novatore The Bot (i.e., Limnoria, python) - using fishlim with hexchat / irssi: - setting up and using GPG: - setting up ssh keys - xmpp with OTR and OMEMO - setting up host files to block advertisements (beware effects on fingerprintability) - VPNS - host your own IRC - self-hosting w/ Nginx - make etherpad not require the *p* (i.e. nginx) - audio streaming - osint - send and receive bitcoin (and/or other cryptocurrency? and setting up group wallets?) - set up i2p - ipfs - mesh - bootloaders: how do they work? <3 - zsh - Plugins: - zsh.org - tools ===== email resources wiki fileshare resources syncthing gobby (collaborative writing / code development) - setup server: git resources gitea gitosis gobalist gogs gitweb IRC atheme briar terminals if you love your console: apt search dwm tmux - post text and images - - bash scripts (for, {}, ..) editos emacs-orgmode vi focuswriter forums (meh) session: together test which cms of @LIST is eaiest to setup imgboard (chans not run by neonazis, maybe?) anokchan.org ;-) <3 privacy 'privacy' is a myth but that doesn't mean we should just give all of the companies and the state all of our data. it actually matters a lot (i.e. they are very much able to invade your life in powerful ways by mining your data) <3 <3 TAO / JTRIG self-hosting sql mail redis - easy backup: - sharing files: - load balancing: tor tor is more than a anonymization client but has a wide ecosystem: 'is tor safe' see vanguards: Possible quests: install the ooni app on your smartphone to measure censorship: set up a cdn with two onion nodes via onionbalance publish a git repository via globalist and let everyone in the group add a commit create damn secret underground chat group with cwtch.im "Warning: Cwtch is an experimental prototype.
