We have all heard (and used) the phrase "Packets don't lie". We live by this mantra. And of course, packets do give evidence to the cause of sometimes complex issues. But as in evidence in criminal cases, this evidence is also subject to how it was taken and from which point of view.
This presentation will lay out many ways in which packets might not tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

He also enhanced multiple protocol dissectors. In 2007, Sake joined the Wireshark Core Development team.
