Hey all,
So lately I've been obsessively working on a project to get software
into people's hands and make it easy for them to see whether it's been
tampered with in-transit.
Code: https://github.com/glamrock/satori (download the zip)
App:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/satori/oncomejlklhkbffpdhpmhldlfambmjlf
Satori has a sha256 hash generator built-in, and the checksums for
each piece of software are baked into the app itself. I'm considering
distributing GPG keys and software signatures as well, which would
require building in a *guide* as well since even most GPG users don't
know how to check software signatures.
In any case, it seems useful and complete enough to get feedback from
the liberation tech community. =) I'd love any feedback or ideas of
what software to include. Critical feedback is especially welcome (even
off-list). Also open to ideas about how I'm screwing this all up or am
failing to account for Threat Model X. ;-) People seem to like it, but
the app is far from perfect. The feedback I've gotten from LibTech in
the past has been *extremely* useful, and really looking forward to
hearing what you all think.
To test (requires Chrome):
1) go to chrome://extensions
2) check the Developer Mode checkbox
3) click Load Unpacked Extension
4) select the Satori/chrome folder
This will add it as a packaged app, and you can open the app by clicking
its icon in chrome://apps/
thanks in advance,
Griffin

Such space. Many polygons. Very bokeh. Wow.
