An oppression-proof image aquisition device.
"Democracy Cam" was described to me by Preston Austin as a camera that immediately shares the photos taken with other cameras and devices. The basic idea is to prevent the capturing of one camera from stopping the flow of documentation during a protest, gathering, etc.
This version (Alpha Zero) is built from off-the-shelf parts and uses Forban to automatically distribute photos to other devices that are on an autonomous ad-hoc WiFi network (or Openwireless.org if avaliable).
