Guide to how fucked is SSL?

Thanks to Jacob Kaplan-Moss, Donald Stufft, David Reid, Allen Short, Zain Memon, and Chris Armstrong for review.

This is a guide for technical individuals to understand in what circumstances SSL communications are secure against an observer-in-the-middle (for all intents and purposes: the NSA).

Secure Docker in the wild

Here is a crude recipe to put socat in front of the Docker API. socat will accept HTTPS connections, make sure that the client shows an appropriate certificate, and relay the connection to the UNIX socket.

First things first

Build your own private, encrypted, open-source Dropbox-esque sync folder

Prerequisites:

• One or more clients running a UNIX-like OS. Examples are given for Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, although all software components are available for other platforms as well (e.g. OS X). YMMV
• A cheap Ubuntu 12.04 VPS with storage. I recommend Backupsy, they offer 250GB storage for $5/month. Ask Google for coupon codes.

Software components used:

• Unison for file synchronization
• EncFS for folder encryption

Make it useful

• Install Package Control. For SublimeText 2, paste the following in Terminal:

import urllib2,os; pf='Package Control.sublime-package'; ipp = sublime.installed_packages_path(); os.makedirs( ipp ) if not os.path.exists(ipp) else None; urllib2.install_opener( urllib2.build_opener( urllib2.ProxyHandler( ))); open( os.path.join( ipp, pf), 'wb' ).write( urllib2.urlopen( 'http://sublime.wbond.net/' +pf.replace( ' ','%20' )).read()); print( 'Please restart Sublime Text to finish installation')

From here on out, use Package Control to install everything. ⌘+Shift+P, then type Install to get a list of installable packages you can 'livesearch through. After installing plugins, they should be running.
