We are all increasingly subject to surveillance by the state and by the corporations closely aligned with the preservation of state interests. We are concerned for how this profoundly threatens both our individual and collective liberty.
Through our resources and workshops we hope to empower individuals and communities to resist surveillance and the increasing state and corporate weaponization of digital technologies that are intended to extract capital, maintain the violent status-quo, and ensure a future for those who hold power. We do this work with a recognition of the necessity of privacy in computing and free (as in freedom) software.
We maintain a Digital Privacy Guide geared toward activist organizing in the United States.
A discussion and workshop concerning privacy and how we conceptualize and manage privacy in our use of digital technologies. We’ll practice identifying and addressing privacy issues in a systematic way via “threat modeling,” and we’ll explore the reasons free (as in speech) software plays a vital role in freedom of thought and expression.
