The Guardian Project is hosting a workshop (https://guardianproject.info/freebird - more below!) on May 30th and we are extending an open invitation to members of the LibTech list. In particular, we are hoping to connect with open-source developers from Brasil and Latin America, who are interested in mobile, to ensure we can best serve the growing number of smartphone users in those regions with increased communication security and privacy capabilities through open, free and libre software. Are you already planning to attend Access' Human Rights Tech Conference in Rio? Then come a day early! In the New York area? We will simultaneously be there, as well, at NYU's Interactive Telecommunication Program, live via the interweb! **** Have you ever worried about if your phone could talk, all the things it would know about your life? Have you rooted, jailbroken or otherwise hacked your phone, in order to make it better somehow? Have you ever built an app for a mobile phone that somehow enhances the privacy of its user, instead of exploiting it? Are you tired of phone companies and mobile operators telling you what you can or cannot do with the personal mobile computer you just paid a whole lot of money for? Do you use mobile phones for protests, activism or human rights, but are worried you may be doing more harm than good? Then Freebird is for you! Freebird is a one-day workshop that aims to empower mobile technology users with greater knowledge about the security and privacy-oriented capabilities of their personal devices, while also giving them the opportunity to meet, influence and collaborate with open-source mobile software developers seeking to address their needs. The May 30th workshop in Rio de Janeiro is a pre-event for the Human Rights Technology Conference <https://rightscon.org/rio>, allowing participants to continue their interactions over the following days. All Freebird attendees will receive passes for the full conference on May 31st and June 1st. Freebird will be held simultaneously in Rio de Janeiro and New York City, connected via a live stream, bringing together activists, developers, hackers and users from both hemispheres, to share and collaborate on the future of open mobile software. https://guardianproject.info/freebird/ aka freebirdcamp.org -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iF4EAREIAAYFAk+gIXgACgkQ0qzSA7N0y9LoHAD9G8y1L7WkvTmWIzLB6OAajFmX 4hhcTJlGFoOMom9PUowA/RVMEh74CUNpmiiiB6fiSZE/reO/Q8xO1KctN5bsygXQ =5IJn -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ liberationtech mailing list [email protected] Should you need to change your subscription options, please go to: https://mailman.stanford.edu/mailman/listinfo/liberationtech If you would like to receive a daily digest, click "yes" (once you click above) next to "would you like to receive list mail batched in a daily digest?"
