#+END_EXAMPLE
+** TODO Feature: Generalize bkgpslog to bklog function
+2020-07-05T02:42Z; bktei> Transform ~bkgpslog~ into a modular
+component called ~bklog~ such that it processes a stdout stream of any
+external command, not just ~gpspipe -r~. This would permit reuse of
+the ~bkgpslog~ code for logging not just GPS data but things like
+pressure, temperature, system statistics, etc.
+2020-07-05T16:35Z; bktei>
+: bklog -r age1asdf -o log.tar # encrypt/compress stdin to log.tar
+: bklog -x -f log.tar -i age.key -O /tmp # extract and decrypt
+
+Making ~bklog~ follow the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_philosophy][Unix philosophy]] means that it shouldn't care
+what kind of text is fed to it.
+
+*** ~bklog~ Design vs. Unix Philosophy
+**** Pubkey dir watching
+The feature of periodically checking a directory for changes in the
+pubkeys it contains should be justified by its usefulness; if the
+complexity cannot be justified then the feature should be removed.
+**** Defaults vs options
+Many options can cause the tool to become complex in unjustifiable
+ways. Currently I am adding options because I want the ability to
+modify the script's behavior without having to modify the source code
+on the machine in which the code is running. I should consider
+removing features at some point and having the program force defaults
+on the user. For example, allowing the specification of a temporary
+directory, while useful for me, is probably not useful for most people
+who don't know or care about the difference between ~/tmp~ and
+~/dev/shm~.
+**** Script time to live (TTL)
+I initially implemented a script time-to-live feature because I was
+unsure in my ability to program script that could run for long periods
+of time without causing a runaway usage of memory. I still think it's
+a good idea to offer a script TTL option to the user but I think the
+default should be to simply run forver.
+** TODO: Evaluate ~rsyslog~ as stand-in for this work
+2020-07-05T02:57Z; bktei> I searched for "debian iot logging" ("iot"
+as in "Internet of Things", the current buzzword for small low-power
+computers being used to provide microservices for owners in their own
+home) and came across several search results mentioning ~syslog~ and
+~rsyslog~.
+
+https://www.thissmarthouse.net/consolidating-iot-logs-into-mysql-using-rsyslog/
+https://rsyslog.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorials/tls.html
+https://serverfault.com/questions/20840/how-would-you-send-syslog-securely-over-the-public-internet
+https://www.rsyslog.com/
+
+My impression is that ~rsyslog~ is a complex software package designed
+to offer many features, some of which possibly might satisfy my
+needs.
+
+However, as stated in the repository README, the objective of the
+~ninfacyzga-01~ project is "Observing facts of the new". This means
+that the goal is not only to record location data but any data that
+can be captured by a sensor. This means the capture of the following
+environmental phenomena are within the scope of this device:
+
+*** Sounds (microphone)
+*** Light (camera)
+*** Temperature (thermocouple)
+*** Air Pressure (barometer)
+*** Acceleration Vector (acceleromter / gyroscope)
+*** Magnetic Field Vector (magnetometer)
+
+This brings up the issue of respecting privacy of others in shared
+spaces through which ~ninfacyzga-01~ may pass through. ~ninfacyzga-01~
+should encrypt data it records according to rules set by its
+owner.
+
+One permissive rule could be that if ~ninfacyzga-01~ detects that a
+person (let's call her Alice) enters a room, it should add Alice's
+encryption public key to the list of recipients against which it
+encrypts data without Alice having to know how ~ninfacyzga-01~ is
+programmed (she might have a ~calkuptcana~ agent on her person that
+broadcasts her privacy preferences). Meanwhile, ~ninfacyzga-01~ may
+publish its observations to a repository that Alice and other members
+of the shared communal space have access to (ex: a read-only shared
+directory on a local network WiFi). Alice could download all the files
+in the shared repository but she would only be able to decrypt files
+generated when she was physically near enough to ~ninfacyzga-01~ for
+it to detect that her presence was within some spatial boundary.
+
+A more restrictive rule could resemble the permissive rule in that
+~ninfacyzga-01~ uses Alice's encryption public key only when she is
+physically near by, except that it encrypts logged files against
+public keys in a sequential manner. This would mean that all people
+who were near ~ninfacyzga-01~ would have to pass around each log file
+to eachother so that they could decrypt the content.
+
+That said, according to [[https://www.rsyslog.com/doc/master/tutorials/database.html][this ~rsyslog~ page]], ~rsyslog~ is more a data
+wrangling system for collecting data from disparate sources of
+different types and outputting data to text files on disk than a
+system committed to the server-client model of database storage. So, I
+think converting ~bkgpslog~ into a ~bklog~ script that appends
+encrypted and compressed data to a tar file for later extraction
+(possibly the same script with future features) would be best.
