Taking back our freedom: free software for sousveillance by libreplanet

The surveillance state is driven by secrecy. But everything leaves a data trail and the intelligence community itself is no exception -- even the NSA is vulnerable to surveillance. Transparency Toolkit is a free software project that helps anyone investigate surveillance programs.

By making tools to help collect and analyze publicly available data like resumes, job listings, social media, and government contracts, we are using free software and open data to track and expose the surveillance state. This talk discusses some of the interesting things we've found, how Transparency Toolkit's software works, and how people can use our tools to investigate issues they care about.
