Crypto-anonymity knowbase
~~META: status = active &relation firstimage = :project:anonymiss_logo.jpg ~~
Aim of this project is to create knowledge base for everybody who need or want to behave in secure way, because “Informations want to be free!” but “Privacy does matter!”
I [we] want to collect all privacy and cryptography related projects of BRMLAB here, too.
Do not hesitate to contribute.

- http://schleuder2.nadir.org/ - Schleuder is a gpg-enabled mailinglist with remailer-capabilities. It is designed to serve as a tool for group communication: subscribers can communicate encrypted (and pseudonymously) among themselves, receive emails from non-subscribers and send emails to non-subscribers via the list. Schleuder takes care of all de- and encryption, stripping of headers, formatting conversions, etc. Further schleuder can send out its own public key upon request and receive administrative commands by email.
Configure email for Multi-party messanging
Have a server with a master key that decrypts incoming mail, re-encrypts with board members' individual subkeys? If it *has* to be the same email account, does it support IMAP? If so, IMAP behaves like a folder; you can take stuff out, and put it back in again. A Python script could be written to scan over new mail, remove “master key” mail and deposit “subkey-re-encrypted” mail. When members access the mail, it will usually have been accessed, re-encrypted and replaced with one they can decrypt. If not, they'll have to wait a few minutes and try again.

What to do, when police come/summon you
Police in democratic-law following country play a game with you, they are sure, you are afraid and unsure of law and situation, keep it in mind This howto is based on Overdrive's experience, not really universal
- keep in mind, that you are suppose to but you must pay visit of em' if cops summon you not testyfy [according Czech law]
- do not afraid and be sure of what are you talking about
- do not tell them anything, they are not asking directly, yes, now or I do not know is answer too
- do not carry electronic devices full of data with you [if possible]
- lawyer number in wallet could be usefull, in case you go to prisson, debts are no prob., in case he will help, you will get some money to pay
- do not do small-talks with cops, even personal talks will allow them to get a lot more info, than you recognize at first [kind of good/bad cop game]
- to not play cheeky monkey, do not try to outsmart them, do not by aggresive just cooperate, but minimally
- BTW it is not necessary to answer all of the questions, e.g. you want to answer some, because you think, it can help in case [think twice of course], but they are asking about something, that can harm you or partner/best friend - than you have right not to talk, use this right [here is text - CZ only - about this topic: (Ne)podání vysvětlení: http://www.dfens-cz.com/view.php?cisloclanku=2013010605 ]
this howto is ment for moments, when they want something from you, in case you need them, use it is oppsite way [not only last point ;]
