"every website sounds different" - that's super cool.
The bitmap images sent at the end of the video also sound really cool.
`cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp`
sudo curl -o /dev/sda https://testfile.org/files-5GBHaha, incredible.
On a more serious note this is a really cool idea. Would be interesting to listen to the same origin traffic in different network conditions to hear things like TCP rate control.

If you read The Idea Factory, it shows that AT&T leadership worked closely with NSA and other governmental agencies (on a "secret schedule" so nobody would know who the execs were meeting with) to help them access US phone data.
I'd love to know the extent of what NSA has done between its founding and today; I'm sure they've pulled off some astounding things, and bolluxed up other stuff badly.
bit evil really, they shit up almost the entire 0-30mhz
but they do work...
sudo tcpdump -i "eth0" -w - -U | aplay -f S16_LE -r 44100- an IP address,
- an email address,
- a phone number,
- a SIM card's MSIN
- a person's social security number,
- a national ID card number,
- a passport number,
- a social media handle etc.
(elsewhere also known as "accessor", "key", "handle" or "index")
I've been trying to stop anything too terrible from happening by asking them to clarify their business requirements, e.g. what should happen when there is malicious impersonation, or the expected result should be when inconsistencies and overlaps exist.
It's not like there's no value to the data... but I'm afraid they don't really understand the problem are are hoping the magic computer can somehow *poof* garbage into fine cuisine.
On the other hand there are hundreds of companies nobody has ever heard of that do buy, collate, clean, and sell access to the data that apps, browser extensions, windows apps, loyalty card programs, branded credit cards, retailers, and companies that scrape LinkedIn etc will happily sell.
You provide what you have and for a price these “enrichment” services will provide what is essentially a dossier of everything that can be even remotely inferred from the thousands of datapoints they have based on your email/name/phone.
What most people think big tech is doing is actually being done in ways that are far more unsettling by companies with cutesy names and vague services that major companies sign contracts with to improve their signal to noise ratio.

How are you going to name this product after the NSA, and not ship to the US???
Click through, and you'll find a more expensive version that is shipped to the US. It's called TariffBox.
