The people on Indiegogo project look legit and their comments line up with what I know about the space. An open source 3 or 4g baseband would be huge boon to anonymity and countersurveillance efforts. Anyone have further references on the project creators?

[liberationtech] Fwd: A crowdfunding campaign to build a free baseband
FYI Forwarded Message Subject: A crowdfunding campaign to build a free baseband Date: Mon, 6 Apr 2015 05:41:54 GMT From: Spacefalcon the Outlaw To: replic...@lists.osuosl.org Hello free phone lovers, As we all know, the baseband/modem/radio processor is the big bone in our collective throat: it is the most closed and proprietary part of every currently available phone, no matter how free the rest of the phone might be. Well, without beating further around the bush, I just started a crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo seeking to change this bleak baseband situation: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/free-software-cellular-baseband My project seeks to solve the problem of the closed and proprietary baseband by producing a GSM modem module that will run 100% free firmware. And furthermore, I seek to produce such a free baseband not by creating it from scratch, but by re-creating one that was already made by someone else some years ago and later discontinued. Please read the campaign page for the full details.

Re: [liberationtech] Secure Video Recording for Android

As poly stated, the Strongbox project is based on our (the Guardian Project) IOCipher encrypted mobile storage library (https://guardianproject.info/code), and the CipherCam library/sample project available here: https://github.com/n8fr8/IOCipherCameraExample You can learn more here: https://lists.mayfirst.org/pipermail/guardian-dev/2015-March/004287.html or try the APK here: https://guardianproject.info/releases/CipherCam-v2.0.1-DEBUG-DEV-TEST.apk It supports still photos, video and soon audio recording, as well. The app also exposes the same launch "intents" for camera and video capture, so any app that uses an external camera, can also tap into CipherCam. I am very excited that developers like poly can build on this to build a focused solution for one feature, and enhance it with their own ideas. That is the exact point of this code and library, and this capability is being built into ChatSecure, InformaCam and the Martus Mobile platform, as well. We hope other developers will build on this capability for their own applications... wouldn't it be great if SnapChat locally encrypted photos and videos it captured, so that they actually disappeared permanently, like they claim? All the best, and thanks again to poly for this release... we need more developers out there working on these types of applications, and we are always happy when they build on our IOCipher, SQLCipher and NetCipher code base.
