Privacy-Enhancing Technologies for Mobile Applications

This is a nice idea, but... if you really want a distributed system, why use a centralized network? I think a much simpler system would be to use a messaging program that runs over an ad-hoc wi-fi network.

This software and encryption is all well and good... but utilizing the physical limitations of the hardware is much more reliable (and much easier to implement).

This video presented some good ideas, but I question the suggested application of those ideas.

i hope you know how easy it is to hack ad-hoc?

Hacking ad-hock is impossible if you aren't within range of the network.

Global networks are at risk of attack from anyone on Earth... thus the high security.

The lack of security on ad-hoc networks is because it isn't necessary: If the cost can be justified, than security will be increased.

If someone within 50 feet of you really wants access to your computer... they can get it: Do you know how easy the 'kick `em in the balls and steal his computer hack' is?

na not kick him in the balls just sit in the car outside or in the parking lot ... i can hack a ad hoc network with my phone fyi and as this video states privacy enhancing technologies now i wonder why that is

You can spend all the time and energy you want blockading the door... and they will just come in through the window...

When you are susceptible to attack from many direction, you must protect yourself equally from each possibly attack (otherwise there's no point).

At close a range: there are so many alternative ways that your system could be infiltrated. This is not unique to ad-hoc networks... any wireless transmission is exposed. Stay hidden and encrypt your data. That's all you can do.

I totally agree !

Very Interesting, thanks.
