What about also considering the idea of putting a big buzzer button up,
linked to a green light, and not necessarily have it connected to
tamale/etc.
There is a sudoRoom wiki page on Defensive Hacking:
https://sudoroom.org/wiki/DefensiveHacking
DefensiveHacking
<https://sudoroom.org/wiki/DefensiveHacking#mw-head><https://sudoroom.org/wiki/DefensiveHacking#p-search>
Just like the oil tribe in Max Max, Sudo Room must learn to protect itself
from hostile outside elements without becoming hostile itself.
- How can Sudo Room protect its wiki from spam?
- How can SudoRoom improve the safety of guests, members and citizens
living in this slice of Oakland?
- How can we enlist the help of talented hackers to protect us from
hostile outside hackers?
- How can we protect Sudo Room from fungus and mold? They're huge
problems! They kill more people than hackers!
We all know super smart people. Wouldn't this be a chance for them to show
off how clever they are at being hackers?
