The Blackbird Encryption Project is all about bringing encryption technology to the existing internet structure.

Parchment protection of personal, industrial, and intellectual information is so far proving an abject failure in the 21st century. Much of the internet, mainly pertaining to online persistent data in forums and blogs, and traversing the internet freely and unencrypted, is left open to the world, to be "taken the wrong way" by concerned parties looking for trouble where there is none. Whereas budgets for various law enforcement and security concerns depend on how much "trouble" they find, a profit motive exists here that can prove disastrous for individuals.

As the polarization in the political and social atmosphere proves, information left behind on the internet is not as likely to enlighten people as are certain interests to use the information to do harm. Much of this is to stifle free thought, and was the case of Germany during the rise of the Nazi regime, where they were successful in destroying "cafe culture"; thereby making people afraid to talk to each other.

Such a chill wind blows once more, in America, as frequent cases occur where messages, worded the wrong way, or an outright truth from one person to another, are intercepted, scanned, parsed, or "googled", and the results of such works by Paid Professional Paranoids result in events ranging from a visit from the SS (U.S. Secret Service, NOT the Waffen SS - this time) to a raid from a paramilitary team armed with machine guns. The latter tends to result in death and/or destruction of property. This is often with little accountability, if any at all, for the perpetrators.

This project intends to make the task of turning the world into a "Prison Planet", making the inmates afraid to talk to each other, much more difficult for the tyrants; regardless of those tyrants being elected and hiding behind the shield of democratic tyranny, or the usual contingency of dictators and globalists. No longer should information be left out to be used the wrong way, nor should ones truth be used to trump up charges against one self. The Fourth and Fifth Amendments of the Bill of Rights - which are intended to keep government at bay rather than grant rights and therefore apply to all living people, are not officially dead. Indeed, to abolish such rights is indication of tyrants behaving as such, and all but that will occur.

Therefore everybody has a right to encrypt their data that they want encrypted, and only decrypted by people they choose. Let no entity say otherwise, for encryption on the internet is as private as whispering in the ear of a friend in your own house.

Blackbird uses various types of encryption to protect data, converting it into an HTML entry with certain parameters. The same utility will, when installed on a web page as an applet, decrypt the same data. What happens from there depends on the client. At no time is the encrypted information, as it remains static on a web server and is transported in packets, left open for parsers and interception. Naturally some modes of encryption are stronger than others, and some rather loose for testing purposes.

Blackbird, upon initial release, uses minor encryption such as ROT 13, to PAD Key Encryption which, given certain rules that are adhered to, cannot be cracked. Also available is Twofish, an AES candidate. For an added layer of protection, PAD Keys can be protected by Twofish.

Additionally, there are other encrypted systems available on the open market. Two of these are initially developed into Blackbird: CodeMeter and WibuKey. Securikey, using the same hardware as WibuKey, is also usable with Blackbird. These types of "dongle" protection and these products in particular, are very secure.

However, Blackbird is designed to accept additional encryption technology as time goes on. There will always be additions, new encryption algorithms, and addition of other hardware-based encryption systems as those familiar with these devices make their knowledge available. Blackbird is open source, and is open to all who wish to help the cause of protecting the right of free speech.

It will grow stronger, and improve over time...


maybe with your help.
