Proxyham Raspberry Pi: O founder of Rhino Security, Benjamin Caudill has created a tool to help privacy-conscious and criminals connect to wireless networks (stolen or not) from a distance of four kilometers.
Where does it work? Of course, in preventing discovery from the Authorities.
The Proxyham Raspberry Pi hardware box is a toolkits supplement like Tor and can hide Web traffic.
The researcher better safetys Caudill (caudillbenjamin) reported at Motherboard that the device should be placed near the WiFi source and it will start transmitting on its signal at 900MHz.
Caudill will sell the device at cost, around $200. Users who wish to build it themselves can check the schematic representations of the material and open source software, when it will be presented at Defcon in August.
The box will probably have to be upgraded with self-destruction and audio tracking features to help the user locate his persecutors.
Data protection advocates, political dissidents, and aspiring criminals will rather appreciate this particular tool.
