Geospoofing with the Raspberry Pi (opens in new tab)

I can see why its not a bad thing, too. If the raspberry pi is reaching people who otherwise wouldn't be capable or motivated to do the "%s on linux" tutorials, then perhaps it's accomplishing its intended use, no?

These articles are good because they show beginners new projects to tackle. If you know them then more power to you. But dont assume everyone else does.

On top of that, all these ARM Cortex based boards have a closed hypervisior on them. It's pretty silly to run this as a router when you have no idea what's running in the hypervisior. I haven't been able to find any information on what it's actually running except some sources say that it might be running a port of Xen for ARM.

Using them to program your robot plant-watering robot is fine but using it for any kind of internet connected device more complicated than that is probably a bad idea.

Do you take an AppleTV or anything with you while travelling? If you're on the road with a laptop you can just run a VPN client on there directly, you don't really need a separate networking device.

It may not be, but I guess it depends on what you have handy. But most of the info will still be useful no matter what hardware you use :)

I did this with an old Mac Mini that was acting mostly as a media server. My router wasn't compatible with TomatoUSB, so I went with what I had. The toolchain was a bit different since OSX uses the BSD networking toolchain rather than the Linux iptables & such.

Edit: s/GNU/Linux

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll add more explanation for that.
