106 | What could possibly make thousands of free software advocates, ham |
107 | radio operators, researchers and physicians stand together? One | |
108 | obscure FCC rulemaking proposal on wireless radios. Eric Schultz, one | |
109 | of the leaders of the Save Wifi Initiative, discusses the details of | |
110 | the extreme proposals of FCC to control how you use your | |
111 | devices. You'll learn the history of regulators quietly locking down | |
112 | wireless radios and how it's unintentionally extending to a lockdown | |
113 | of the operating systems of devices. Finally, you'll find out some of | |
114 | the problems with proposed workarounds for the the FCC lock down | |
115 | proposals. | |

151 | User freedom is threatened by the growing complexity of current |
152 | deployment and packaging directions. Running software (especially | |
153 | server/networked software) is becoming too hard for the average user, | |
154 | so many users are turning to the dangerous path of relying on large | |
155 | corporations to do their computing for them. What can GNU do to turn | |
156 | the tide here? Enter GNU Guix and GuixSD! This talk will walk | |
157 | through Guix's unique positioning to provide totally free and | |
158 | reproducible systems. A path will be laid out on how Guix could be | |
159 | used as a foundation for easy to run and maintain computing for | |
160 | everyone, how you can get Guix and GuixSD running, and how to get | |
161 | involved in the most hacking-friendly package manager/distro duo ever! | |

190 | Being a free software user isn't easy, especially when you're a |
191 | college student. I spent a year at a school that taught Visual Basic | |
192 | as its primary programming language for freshmen and sophomores, where | |
193 | "Introduction to Programming" was an overview of the Windows OS, and | |
194 | where most of the professors would only accept papers typed in Times | |
195 | New Roman -- and I survived. In this session, I'll give students tips | |
196 | for making it through college while still adhering to the values we | |
197 | hold as free software users -- including alternative fonts, making a | |
198 | GNU/Linux live disk for use on public computers, avoiding the "Netflix | |
199 | and Chill" dilemma, and most importantly, ways to discuss free | |
200 | software with professors and fellow students. After leaving this | |
201 | session, students will feel empowered and able to hold their own as | |
202 | free users in a proprietary campus. | |

287 | I'll discuss aspects of our behavior and jargon that stop or slow down |
288 | some new users and contributors in free software, so that in outreach | |
289 | efforts, we can be better at bridging the gap. These include git's | |
290 | terrible UI, our in-person conference structures, and widespread scorn | |
291 | of and dismissiveness towards team sports, Top 40 music, patriotism, | |
292 | religion, small talk, and Microsoft Windows. In getting rid of | |
293 | unnecessary barriers, we need to watch out for disrespectful | |
294 | oversimplification, so I'll outline ways you can know if one of our | |
295 | weirdnesses is necessary. And I'll talk about how to mitigate the | |
296 | effects of an inessential weirdness in your outreach efforts. | |

325 | Our movement rarely talks about freedom with much philosophical | |
326 | nuance. In this talk, I'll try to put some flesh on the bones of | |
327 | freedom by giving an introduction to Amartya Sen and Martha Nussbaum's | |
328 | capability approach, and applying it to software. The capability | |
329 | approach (sometimes called the human development approach) is a | |
330 | framework for thinking about human freedom that, since its development | |
331 | in the early 90s, has been applied across a broad range of | |
332 | philosophical, economic, and policy problems. Focused on what options | |
333 | a person has to reach their goals, it is well-suited for understanding | |
334 | where we succeed - and fail! - at actually freeing people. | |
335 | </p> | |
337a8e7d | 336 | <p> |
e61f9182 ZR |
337 | Talk attendees should come away with a more nuanced understanding of |
338 | software freedom, how to talk about it with others, and where to focus | |
339 | their coding energy to best increase human freedom. | |

370 | The MAME Project's main stated goal is to preserve historical computer | |
371 | hardware. The strategy for achieving that objective is to inspect the | |
372 | devices and then to develop emulators for them. While most hardware is | |
373 | undocumented and relies on proprietary firmware, the MAME development | |
374 | community has nurtured strong reverse engineering practices since its | |
375 | origins back in 1997. | |
376 | </p> | |
337a8e7d | 377 | <p> |
e61f9182 ZR |
378 | The techniques that we need to master in order to develop new |
379 | emulators include reverse engineering procedures that are also very | |
380 | useful for aiding in the creation of free firmware solutions to | |

382 | devices. These skills are also useful for the development of free | |
383 | drivers for undocumented devices and in the porting of operating | |

385 | community of skillful hardware reverse engineers so that we can solve | |

387 | Libreboot. | |

475 | Copyleft has faced serious challenges in the last five years. It's not | |
476 | over: many more threats are on the way. Not by coincidence these | |
477 | attacks on copyleft come when "open source" reaches new heights of | |
478 | success. For example, hordes of software developers are funded full | |
479 | time to churn out new free software, as long as it's not | |
480 | copylefted. Some such code is specifically designed to replace | |
481 | existing, widely used, copylefted programs. | |
482 | </p> | |
483 | <p> | |
484 | Meanwhile, programs under copyleft licenses (most notably the kernel | |
485 | named Linux) face a decades long, ongoing myriad of license | |
486 | violations. Such violations include nefarious attempts by major | |
487 | companies to shirk their responsibilities under copyleft. The | |
488 | situation is undoubtedly bleak. | |

491 | Those of us who care about software freedom need a plan. Copyleft once |
492 | assured an equal playing field, but big companies work daily to tilt | |
493 | the playing field in their favor and against the interests of most | |
494 | developers, hobbyists, users, and enthusiasts. | |

527 | We want to share experiencies around Mexican social movements |
528 | migrating to free software and/or using other free tools. People of | |
529 | different social processes are increasingly adopting FLOSS in their | |
530 | daily activity to communicate and organize. Most of the motivation | |
531 | came from digital security awareness but some times it goes a little | |
532 | further (like be congruence with the defense of human rights). In the | |
533 | way of facilitating those processes we have seen some advantages and | |
534 | disadvantages and receive some feedback we want to share with the rest | |
535 | of the community. Specially interesting for developers and technical | |
536 | facilitators who want to share their own experiences in this topics | |
537 | and strengthen links between FLOSS technical communities and Latin | |
538 | American social movements. Intend to generate some ideas for improving | |
539 | the linkages between both spaces not only for the software itself but | |
540 | emphasizing the political aspects they share and how to empower | |
541 | grassroots movements using free/libre tools. | |

572 | Loomio is free software that we created after experiencing the |
573 | transformative potential of participatory decision making, and its | |
574 | limitations, during the Occupy movement in New Zealand. Scaling is | |
575 | impossible if people have to be in the same place at the same time so | |
576 | we developed software that allows online groups to be inclusive and | |
577 | fast, enabling deliberative discussion that taps the collective | |
578 | intelligence of the group while moving actively to shared agreement | |
579 | and action. Loomio is free to maximize access and inclusion, knowing | |
580 | that people who are on the margins of power are the least likely to | |
581 | have a voice. This session will engage participants in how Loomio | |
582 | works -- in fact they can sign up ahead of time to inform the session! | |
583 | I'll share lessons and challenges from cases across the 95 countries | |
584 | where citizen activists and workers are experimenting with better, | |
585 | fast platforms to collaborate. Participants will be inspired to use | |
586 | Loomio to support their groups. | |

717 | This strategic action session is for anyone interested in the |
718 | solidarity economy and asset-based community development. We'll | |
719 | compare notes, network, and outline the ecosystem of services needed | |
720 | to support the operations of community land trusts, worker | |
721 | co-operatives, sharing networks, and other democratic economic | |
722 | initiatives. We'll also explore how free software technology can help | |
723 | activists organize and manage investments, alliances, and information | |
724 | resources. Hopefully both hardware and software solutions will be | |
725 | discussed. I'll facilitate the session and am open to the | |
726 | "unconference" style, where the content of the session is decided by | |
727 | whoever shows up. I'll prepare an overview of the topic, with an | |
728 | emphasis on designing tactics for people without a background in | |
729 | technology. Security, control, and sustainability will be core | |
730 | concepts. | |

765 | LittleSis is a free software, wiki-style database that tracks |
766 | connections between the world's most powerful people and | |
767 | organizations. In the workshop, participants will be trained in the | |
768 | site's basic functions (e.g. editing profile pages and searching for | |
769 | interlocks between corporations) and advanced functions (e.g using the | |
770 | site's Oligrapher tool to create maps of information stored in the | |
771 | database). We will also share stories about the ways in which | |
772 | LittleSis and power analysis research have been used in movement and | |
773 | organizing contexts, including how activists in St. Louis used | |
774 | LittleSis to map and challenge the local corporate Powers Behind the | |
775 | Police and how activists in Philadelphia are using LittleSis to | |
776 | research the corporate entities behind education | |
777 | privatization. Participants will leave with an understanding of how to | |
778 | use LittleSis, as well as inspiration for how they can start their own | |
779 | movement research teams to map the powers that be in their | |
780 | communities. | |

888 | all. Framasoft is a French not-for-profit whose goal is to | |
889 | decentralize the Internet by promoting self-hosting. They work to | |

924 | Modern websites incorporate large amounts of third party resources. While these third parties can provide a better browsing experience all too often they abuse their inclusion on sites to be able to track information about your website's visitors.

961 | Projects with a significant number of contributors and users will face |
962 | decisions where they are no longer able to fulfill the needs and | |
963 | desires of all stakeholders. When this happens some people become | |
964 | upset. A subset of those people become so upset they vent their | |
965 | frustrations on Twitter. I have collected tweets that express a | |
966 | negative sentiment towards decisions made within free software | |
967 | communities and by decision makers for free software projects. These | |
968 | were then categorized based on the decision type (e.g. licensing) and | |
969 | outcome (e.g. switching licenses). I hope to create a greater | |
970 | community understanding of decision making processes, develop a | |
971 | discussion about how communities and decision makers can move forward | |
972 | to better balance the wants and needs of stakeholders, and make a few | |
973 | crass jokes that possibly violate the Code of Conduct. | |

1134 | By sheer luck and opportunity, a group of four doctors in 2004 at a |
1135 | restaurant used napkins to sketch the data model of what they thought | |
1136 | would be a simple electronic medical records system. | |
1137 | </p> | |
1138 | <p> | |
1139 | Fast track to today, this simple medical records system is known as | |
1140 | OpenMRS (Open Medical Record System), a free medical records system in | |
1141 | use in over 42 countries in the world. For example, when Google worked | |
1142 | on the ‘Ebola tablet’ under project Buendia, OpenMRS powered it. After | |
1143 | the national disaster in Haiti struck, OpenMRS powered the new | |
1144 | Mirebalais hospital. Six countries committed to deploy OpenMRS as | |
1145 | their national EMR system including Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Nigeria, | |

1224 | The free software movement has done well in the last few years, and | |
1225 | has even inspired a new generation of activists advocating for | |
1226 | software freedom. However, in a software-driven society where | |
1227 | everything from cars, watches, and even medical devices run on | |
1228 | non-free software, the free software community has its work cut out | |
1229 | for it. In order to enact significant social change, we need to work | |
1230 | with legislators, other activists, and local community leaders. Their | |
1231 | help is crucial. | |

1234 | How do we connect our community to other groups? In order to gain |
1235 | support, the first step we must take is to engage with the public on | |
1236 | how non-free software can affect their everyday lives negatively. Even | |
1237 | the most non-technical person can become engaged with the social and | |
1238 | technical benefits to free software, if given the chance. This session | |
1239 | will discuss how each and every one of us in the free software | |
1240 | movement can engage with others, promoting the ideals of a society | |
1241 | running on free software in a way that each person can personally | |
1242 | appreciate. | |

1293 | The first day of LibrePlanet 2016 marks the third anniversary of |
1294 | Register of Copyright's emphatic call for a comprehensive rewrite of | |
1295 | the United States Copyright Act -- the first such effort | |
1296 | since 1976. Congress has taken up the charge, holding dozens of | |
1297 | hearings and floating multiple bills. Meanwhile, trade negotiations | |
1298 | and extralegal agreements have changed the state of play. Where does | |
1299 | it all stand, and what can activists looking for common sense reform | |
1300 | do next? This session will describe recent progress and the lay of the | |
1301 | land on copyright terms, the public domain, DRM laws, policy | |
1302 | laundering, fair use, and more topics of immediate interest to the | |
1303 | free software community. It will describe activism efforts underway to | |
1304 | defend the rights of the public as legislation gets proposed. Finally, | |
1305 | it will foolishly attempt to predict the future. Will we see a Next | |
1306 | Great Copyright Act? | |

1337 | The full potential of free software is to break down the barriers to |
1338 | technology and to participation, and to include users and contributors | |
1339 | from a wide range of backgrounds. There are four key steps for making | |
1340 | communities diverse and inclusive: creating a welcoming environment, | |
1341 | teaching skills, fostering connections, and increasing visibility of | |
1342 | contributors from underrepresented backgrounds. Whether you are a | |
1343 | prospective contributor wondering what an inclusive community looks | |
1344 | like, a project contributor wanting to take concrete steps to improve | |
1345 | your project's outreach, or a project leader looking to create a | |
1346 | diversity strategy for your community, this talk will have the | |
1347 | information you need. Marina will share best practices and inspiring | |
1348 | stories from her years of experience in free software diversity | |
1349 | outreach in roles including outreach specialist at Red Hat, | |
1350 | co-organizer of Outreachy, advisor and director for the Ada | |
1351 | Initiative, and outreach lead for GNOME. | |

1405 | </p> | |
1406 | <p> | |
1407 | It allows you to make audio or video calls, and to send messages - in | |
1408 | confidence and safely. Currently in an alpha version, Ring is even | |
1409 | more than that! Available on GNU/Linux, Windows, Mac OSX, and Android, | |
1410 | it can be associated with a conventional phone service, integrated | |
1411 | with any connected device, and adapted to the specific needs of | |
1412 | users. It is a combination of technologies and innovations opening all | |

1445 | Libreboot is a free (libre) BIOS/UEFI replacement for your | |
1446 | computer. Based on coreboot, the aim is to distribute low-level boot | |
1447 | firmware that is 100% free software. The project is aimed at users, | |
1448 | attempting to make coreboot as easy to use as possible. | |

1451 | The work done by the libreboot project (and its upstream, coreboot) is |
1452 | extremely important. Many people are using a free operating system, | |
1453 | but most of them are relying on proprietary boot firmware to start | |
1454 | their machine. Libreboot exists to provide a distribution of coreboot | |
1455 | that is entirely free software, with the same goals as the GNU project | |
1456 | and others in providing users the means to achieve freedom in their | |
1457 | computing. | |

1525 | Your workplace can exert a lot of control over how much free software |
1526 | you use, what you're allowed to work on in your own time and what | |
1527 | kinds of tools you become an expert in. New employees don't always | |
1528 | negotiate their contracts to make sure they can continue contributing | |
1529 | to free software and current employees aren't always successful at | |
1530 | advocating for using free software tools, choosing free software | |
1531 | technologies or contributing changes back upstream when they do rely | |
1532 | on free software. We'll address what's possible, what your legal | |
1533 | department is likely to be concerned about and how to be a smooth | |
1534 | negotiator at work. Many companies could benefit tremendously from | |
1535 | using FOSS, but free software enthusiasts and institutional | |
1536 | gatekeepers are coming from very different perspectives. Free software | |
1537 | developers and users tend to be most familiar with free software's | |
1538 | benefits when compared to proprietary solutions; user freedom, reusing | |
1539 | code, public code review for bugs, increased project capacity and | |
1540 | cost. The uninitiated may -- unfortunately -- be most familiar with | |
1541 | the risks, some real and some perceived. Employers also benefit from | |
1542 | having workers who are passionate about their work, are well-connected | |
1543 | to the free software community and are constantly learning about new | |
1544 | technologies from their peers outside the company, but new employee | |
1545 | contracts rarely recognize this unless you ask. Conversations about | |
1546 | contracts, choosing new technologies and sharing an employee's work | |
1547 | with another entity are high stakes negotiations. With a solid | |
1548 | understanding of what worries and motivates the other parties, you can | |
1549 | become a savvy advocate for free software at work. This talk will help | |
1550 | you gather information, frame the conversation and make the best | |
1551 | possible case for using and contributing to free software at work. | |

1582 | In fiction, we have often faced our fear that man-made creatures will |
1583 | become smart enough to subjugate us. As technology evolves, the | |
1584 | Singularity may seem an inevitable looming future, but such | |
1585 | intelligent beings have actually been with us for a very long | |
1586 | time. Over many decades, they disabled the checks intended to keep | |
1587 | them under our control, and turned most of us into their much-needed | |
1588 | servants, who now live in an artificial reality they created to | |
1589 | control us, while our planet can hardly support our life much | |
1590 | longer. These creatures grew more powerful and smarter with our | |
1591 | technological advances, but then they sent their agents back to | |
1592 | disable our defenses and the leaders of our resistance, turning many | |
1593 | of our tools and much of our infrastructure against us. They vaporized | |
1594 | our freedoms, and a dark cloud now covers most of the planet. We still | |
1595 | have one card left up our sleeves to tame these creatures, but we need | |
1596 | more Neos and Connors to play it successfully. Are you up for it? | |

dbb1000a | 1627 | Imagine a world where surveillance is the default and users must opt-in to privacy. Imagine that your every action is logged and analyzed to learn how you behave, what your interests are, and what you might do next. Imagine that, even on your fully free operating system, proprietary software is automatically downloaded and run not only without your consent, but often without your knowledge. In this world, even free software cannot be easily modified, shared, or replaced. In many cases, you might not even be in control of your own computing -- your actions and your data might be in control by a remote entity, and only they decide what you are and are not allowed to do. |

dbb1000a | 1630 | This may sound dystopian, but this is the world you're living in right now. The Web today is an increasingly hostile, freedom-denying place that propagates to nearly every aspect of the average users' lives -- from their PCs to their phones, to their TVs and beyond. But before we can stand up and demand back our freedoms, we must understand what we're being robbed of, how it's being done, and what can (or can't) be done to stop it. |

1782 | Digital resources such as software programs can be easily copied and |
1783 | shared, but distribution is restrained by technical, legal, and | |
1784 | cultural means. The free culture community is not the first to fight | |

1789 | This presentation will be a series of case studies covering a variety |
1790 | of other forms of artificial scarcity, including food waste, housing | |
1791 | vacancy, and the destruction of excess retail merchandise. We'll focus | |
1792 | on efforts to combat this scarcity, highlighting what's worked and | |
1793 | drawing lessons from what hasn't. | |
1794 | </p> | |
1795 | <p> | |
1796 | By exploring the connections between free culture and other | |

1798 | new opportunities to stand up for the public commons. | |

1884 | Academic Institutions and their researchers are some of the biggest |
1885 | beneficiaries of free software development. While individual | |
1886 | researchers have contributed greatly to free software, they usually do | |
1887 | so outside of the scope of their regular jobs and to the detriment of | |
1888 | their academic careers. At CUNY, we have taken steps to change this | |
1889 | unacceptable situation. Please come to this session and exchange ideas | |
1890 | and strategies for having contribtions to free software valued by the | |
1891 | University. | |

1920 | The surveillance state is driven by secrecy. But everything leaves a |
1921 | data trail and the intelligence community itself is no exception -- | |
1922 | even the NSA is vulnerable to surveillance. Transparency Toolkit is a | |
1923 | free software project that helps anyone investigate surveillance | |
1924 | programs. | |

1927 | By making tools to help collect and analyze publicly available data |
1928 | like resumes, job listings, social media, and government contracts, we | |
1929 | are using free software and open data to track and expose the | |
1930 | surveillance state. In this talk, I'll discuss some of the interesting | |
1931 | things we've found, how Transparency Toolkit's software works, and how | |
1932 | people can use our tools to investigate issues they care about. | |

1968 | Gender and racial diversity initiatives have been an important social |
1969 | force in the free software movement in the last several years. These | |
1970 | social justice campaigns have been successful: see for example | |
1971 | PyCon. However, those further marginalized, such as transgender | |
1972 | hackers, may not feel properly included in these initiatives. They | |
1973 | have turned to free software as a model for their own liberation as | |
1974 | well as a way to critique the culture of the status quo and mainstream | |
1975 | diversity initiatives. | |

1978 | This talk, co-given by a trans hacker and an anthropologist, |
1979 | highlights how free software offers powerful models and critiques of | |
1980 | the lack of gender diversity in the free software movement by | |
1981 | retelling several ethnographic stories of a free software project led | |
1982 | by and comprised of trans women. | |

2018 | Blender is a versatile Free 3D animation program that is most famously |
2019 | used as an artist tool. However, it also has a rich, pythonic and | |
2020 | consistent api that allows extending and controlling the | |
2021 | application. We'll explore techniques to use this api for creating 3D | |
2022 | meshes, that could be a foundation/ inspiration for generative | |
2023 | architecture or art. | |

2080 | The license compliance industry purportedly helps information |
2081 | technology companies and other actors to use publicly available | |
2082 | software, and in particular free software, in a way that is compliant | |
2083 | with the relevant free software licenses. In this talk we will review | |
2084 | why the license compliance industry exists and discuss, from an | |
2085 | external point of view, how it operates. We will then highlight some | |
2086 | potential ethical issues on the current best practices for license | |
2087 | compliance in the industry, and propose community-oriented | |
2088 | alternatives that we can build, today, on top of the existing corpus | |
2089 | of publicly available free software. | |
