I do not currently expect to be able to make the 2600 meeting. I'll try, particularly if folks from the list express interest, but given the travel time involved, it seems like I'm cutting time much too close for comfort (I do have a plane to catch, after all). If I'm able to make it, I'll be there from 7 - 8 and happy to present or Q&A, but I can't promise things at this point. My apologies, but also my thanks to the amazing folks from BLR (Lee, Maureen, Will) for making Tuesday possible. In short: FaceBook, Google, the advertisers, et al., should be worried: the right to private communication is a moral issue. Offending the moral sense of free software developers is not, traditionally, a good long-term business investment. Nonetheless, the most difficult issues are social ones. These too, should be straightforward: we can use the PGP Web of Trust to reduce the technological problems to their social components. When your options are between talking with your friends, or talking with your friends without endemic Internet stalking, the choice is pretty easy. The 0.1 FreedomBox version has been released and we're working on a beta. The 0.1 has a web-proxy to hide you from many advertisers and other observers. The weekly images can also serve as a wireless router and contains an experimental communication tool that can be used to dynamically set up VPNs between systems. Development is going, but slower than it should. To go faster, we need more developers with consciences to come out of the woodwork, subscribe to the mailing list [0], join us on IRC [1], and fork a repository to fix some TODOs [2]. Please reach out if you're interested, we'd love the help. If your experience is anything like mine, it might even earn you some free pizza.
