You could get one of those power strips with a power button intented to be operated by foot. Provided you've encrypted everything on your system including all network traffic and swap, pushing the big red switch should do the trick. :) Not exactly an open source solution, but it may well be effective. In all likelyhood the flashbang armored ninjas with automatics, night vision, "get the fuck on the floor and shut the fuck up bitch" entry will happen while you're asleep, so you won't have time to hit the big red button anyway. So, the best way to avoid that situation and not being able to reach the big red switch, is simply not to attract their attention in the first place by not following the footsteps of Jim Bell. :) A more likely, and far more important, scenario to worry about is the black bag job whereby a hardware keystroke recorder can get installed without your knowledge... There may be ways to prevent/detect this... Software (open or closed source) alone won't help very much. ----------------------Kaos-Keraunos-Kybernetos--------------------------- + ^ + :25Kliters anthrax, 38K liters botulinum toxin, 500 tons of /|\ \|/ :sarin, mustard and VX gas, mobile bio-weapons labs, nukular /\|/\ <--*-->:weapons..

At this stage I think a small question is in order. Is there any Big Red Button software out there to complement this level of paranoia?
