Well, what hour of the day I do my show depends on where I am in the
world. I was in the USA the other day, and was on during the "working
hours" in the western USA. That is when I had the caller from Vegas on
my program.
What you fail to understand is that many administrators look for just
that type of think - and streaming audio/video is very easy to spot.
Not if the bandwidth usage is kept very low. For a talk show, the
audio quality does not need to be that high. I use 24K on the live 365
feed, and the backup feed I have, that kicks on if Live 365 goes down,
streams at 10K.. Either way, the bandwidth usage is kept very low, and
wold not be stand out in any usage reports, becuase it will look like
ordinary Web traffic.
In the case of a properly configured security solution you would never
stand a chance of your show reaching the target people.
However, there are STILL the citywide public WiFi networks. One could
disconnect their workstation from the office network, and plug in to
the citywide WiFi network (if your city has one). Just disconnect the
computer fro the office network, plug in a USB wireless network card,
re-boot the system, and you are good to go.
Several of us, those that design secure networks, have already shown how
easy it is to block your data from being reached, as people become more
aware of that type of threat to productivity and security they will also
start blocking it.
A talk show would be hardly a threat to network security. About the
only ones that would consider our talk show a serious threat would be
the right-wing nutjobs who do not like my anti-Bush commentary. I even
had one reporter from the ultra-conservative Fox network call me up on
my show and call me a "Godless Commie", because I support a few
Democratic candidates in the upcoming elections in America (I am a
USA/Australia dual national). To get to my show she connected via her
cable modem on Optimum Online, and the got to my show that way. The
admins at Fox News Channel would have had no CLUE she connected to her
cable modem, and then to my show. The network admins at Fox News
Channel would have known she made a connection to her cable modem at
Optimum Online, but where she went beyong that point would ONLY be know
to her, and to Optiimum Online. She even admitted cirumventing the
company's filtering system so she could get on my show and chew my ass
out for my political views, using an encrypted tunnel to her cable
modem. All the admins at FNC would have seen, if they were monitoring
the connection, was a bunch of unbreable encryption. If you had been
the network admin at Fox news, you, too would have had no CLUE as to
WHAT this person at Fox News was up to.
