Since starting Lahana[1] I've become much more aware of the information we leak and the information that can be intercepted. In terms of counteracting the average Internet user, provided that Amazon isn't in the prism list (and I'm referring to Amazon outside of country) A private Lahana node may be sufficient, but I'm not making promises and would welcome ideas both to the contrary and ways of making Lahana better while still accessible.

Lahana was designed to be accessible by lowest common denominator non-technical people on closed hardware. At the moment as an experiment I'm building supporting infrastructure for Lahana, starting with StaTorsNet[2], an Anonymous/Pseudonymous twitter implementation based on Statusnet. Again, I welcome comments positive and negative especially if they can be used to improve the deployment or convince me to pull the service based on risks.

I've been looking at Mumble for calls, but am interested in alternatives with working mobile clients. If anyone wants to get together and turn this into a proper project, please get in touch from my profile page. I'm game if you are.
