KSEC News Reports, Pt. 2

Good evening, everyone,
and welcome again
to channel 23 KSEC news.
I'm Skip Turner.
A local hacker,
fed up with the current state of the internet,
has released a multi-platform application
to create a sizable encrypted mesh network
using all types of electronic devices.
Upon running the application,
mobile phones, tablets, routers,
laptops, televisions,
and even some household smart appliances
like toasters and refrigerators
are turned into peer-to-peer nodes for the network,
wirelessly broadcasting and receiving data
from any other connected gadgets within range.
The developer, known only as Neals,
began distributing the application
along with its source code
to San Secuestro locals yesterday.
According to the available network statistics,
the app has been installed on at least
a quarter million devices already
Government officials have commented
that this type of privacy application violates federal law
by subverting the current ban
on unlicensed encrypted traffic

"This application is clearly designed
to make our job of protecting the people
of this great nation more difficult,
possibly subjecting
our precious children
to everything from
anonymous cyberbullying
to heinous acts of terrorism.
Circumvention of these laws
is itself an act of terrorism,
and we will prosecute
whoever is responsible for designing and distributing this application
to the fullest extent of the law."
Anyone with information regarding this case
is advised to contact their local
Federal Bureau of Telecommunications field office.
