Sasha Meinrath of the New America Foundation discussed the launch of "Commotion Wireless," an open-source software designed to create mesh networks using cell phones and laptops. While originally intended for activists to bypass government surveillance, the project received funding from the U.S. State Department for use by dissidents in places like Egypt. Technical limitations, such as the requirement to root Android devices, are noted.
Listener Donations, Wireless SSID Marketing and Karma Requests
Listeners share creative ways they support the show, such as renaming their wireless networks to "noagendashow.com." The segment covers various donation amounts and requests for "job karma," "breakup karma," and "roommate karma." The hosts interact with the "boner" community, a term used for listeners who have not yet donated, encouraging them to contribute.
Killing Joke Lyrics, GWEN Towers and Weather Control
Inspired by the lyrics of the band Killing Joke, the hosts discuss the "GWEN" (Ground Wireless Emergency Network) towers. They explore theories that these 200 towers, built in the 1990s, could be used in conjunction with HAARP for weather modification or atmospheric manipulation.
A BBC report on the Russian spy ring is mocked for its dramatic description of "clandestine techniques" such as invisible ink and wireless networks. The hosts suggest these methods are antiquated or exaggerated, further supporting the theory that the spy story is a "military-entertainment-industry complex" production.
