Dumpster Drive: File-Sharing For Your Digital Trash
Dumpster Drive is a file-sharing application that recycles digital files. Using dumpster diving as a model for recirculating unwanted objects, Dumpster Drive allows others to dig through files that you delete on your computer in a passive file-sharing network. Instead of simply erasing data from your computer, the software allows users to extend the lifecycle of their unwanted files and pass them on to others.
Nice! @FreeNYT tweets “We Read, We Tweet” in reference to circumventing the NYTimes paywalls.
Someone is setting “Hipster Traps” in NYC, baited with Pabst Blue Ribbon, American Spirit cigarettes, and cheap yet colorful sunglasses. Be careful out there, Tumblrers.
