5. Me, my self and I
From early age, I had an interest in technology and computer systems. Gaming, flow
of information, and computer aided organization are my daily hobbies. So from Atari
BASIC and BBS up to Microsoft Windows Server 2012 and Cloud computing, I
enjoyed every minute of my devoted time to technology eversince.

6. Why?
Participated in couple of cryptoparties @ Hackerspace premises and I
wanted to contribute. So I checked:

7. What is Piratebox?
PirateBox is a Do It Yourself anonymous offline file­
sharing and communications system built with free
software and inexpensive off­the­shelf hardware.
In other words, a wireless (deaddrop) file server not
hooked into the Internet.
What Piratebox isn't?
It has nothing to do with piracy (digital or not), it
doesn't endorse piracy, it is a tech platform for file
distribution like Bittorrent.

buildings and curbs accessible to anybody in public space.
Everyone is invited to drop or find files on a dead drop. Plug your

19. OFFLINE FILESHARING TODAY
● PirateBox in 2015
– Slow but continues development
– Around 800­1300 downloads of OpenWrt builds each month
– Fluctuating community members & contributors
● Yearly Community meetings in Summer

20. OpenWrt is a highly extensible GNU/Linux distribution for embedded
devices (typically wireless routers). Unlike many other distributions for
these routers, OpenWrt is built from the ground up to be a full­
featured, easily modifiable operating system for your router. In
practice, this means that you can have all the features you need with
none of the bloat, powered by a Linux kernel that's more recent than
most other distributions.
● Free Open source
● Easy and Free
Access
● Community driven

21. Android version
● Same UI
● Same core functions
● But different
codebase
● Needs a rooted
phone
