The Institute for Applied Autonomy is an activist group which focuses on dissemination of knowledge, autonomy, and methods of self-determination through artistic expression and application of military-like technology to the topics of Criminal Mischief, decentralized systems and individual autonomy. The group of anonymous artists is known for employing technology in protest. Among its better known initiatives are the distribution of maps displaying the positioning of surveillance cameras in New York City, in protest of privacy violations, and TXTMob, a registration system for cell phones to allow protest groups rapid, anonymous communication.
