Using public network IP address and changed MAC address...?




ShaqM


I'm doing a project on maintaining security and disguising yourself on the web. Can someone use a public internet IP address and change their MAC address through the use of software to perform an activity online and not be traced back to the original computer?


Answer
Using public WiFi, you might be able to prevent someone figuring out who you are by changing your MAC address; however, you wouldn't want to use the same MAC address twice or for very long.

No matter what you do, the will be able to figure out your location while you were using the public network and if warranted they will check surveillance camera footage and the like to figure out who you are.

So, no you won't be able to trace back to the original computer, but they will know where the computer was located while you were doing what you were doing.

What would I need to have my Wireless Infrared Camera connect to my computer for recording?

But I am not sure what it will take to record what the receiver sees from the camera onto my Mac laptop. I think I need a cord of some sort but I am not sure what type of cord for Mac. Thanks!
Thank Caoedhen. The camera is wireless but it can also be wired. I will be using it wireless so I need something a chord that will connect the receiver to my Mac. I think I have software that can record it once it's plugged in, but I need a name of a cord to use. Thanks!



Answer
If it needed a cord, it wouldn't be wireless.

You'd need video capture software on your Mac (iMovie may work?) and a place to plug the camera and receiver in. Should be USB, unless it will only work over those composite cables that are included... in which case you need a real video capture device attached to your Mac.

You may be able to use your Mac directly, if it has WiFi (Airport) built in and the "receiver" isn't locked to the camera somehow.

The camera description appears to say it can be AC or DC powered, but that part of the listing is cut off in mid-sentence. Probably "optional battery pack". So you could make it a truly wireless system by putting the camera anywhere within WiFi range of the receiver.
