I'm currently looking at constructing an anonymous ad-hoc 802.11b network in Berkeley ... I mean it is Berkeley and that seems like the right kind of thing to do here :-)
I'm in the process of putting in nodes at my office in North Berkeley and also at my home in the Berkeley hills - but two nodes does not a network make and these are the only places I have physical access to right now. I realize there's been significant work done in Ad-hoc routing for this kind of network but I've yet to come across anything which directly addresses the issues of privacy and anonymity in such a network. Specifically what I want to do is to make it difficult (preferably impossible) to physically locate anyone in the network by analyzing the data flowing with it (no doubt Patriot II will make this illegal but I digress). So I'd be interested in talking to anyone who wants to collaborate on such an effort; specially anyone who'd be interested in building and hosting such a network or had insight/ideas/musings on how it can be achieved.
