66 <p>Medical devices are expensive and unavailable in many parts of the world
67 despite being essential to care. In this session, Tarek discusses work
68 on the front lines in Gaza to make medical devices accessible by
69 creating free designs and validating them according to
70 medical industry standards. These efforts have been part of a larger
71 initiative to lay a foundation for a post-liberation Gaza in which FLOSS
72 medical devices must compete against proprietary medical devices.</p>

234 <p>Free software licenses constrain how software can be used, while
235 providing no limits or guidance on how it can be built. As a result,
236 a wide variety of governance structures are used in free software
237 projects, from "one person, one vote" democracy to "benevolent
238 dictator for life," and beyond.</p>
239 <p>This presentation provides a survey of existing governance structures
240 used by free software projects such as Python, Debian, and others.
241 Together, we'll explore how governance decisions have affected these
242 projects over time, using the Common Pool Resource framework developed
243 by Nobel Prize-winning economist Elinor Ostrom.</p>

269 twentieth century. I will discuss modern efforts to crack
270 international encryption standards, as well as some systematic
271 weaknesses that have been deliberately introduced into encryption
272 algorithms by world superpowers. I will talk in depth about the
273 Dual-EC PRNG algorithm, the back door that was discovered in this
274 algorithm, and the weaknesses it caused across the technology
275 industry. Attendees will get a kick out of the colorful history of

349 <p>Much hand-wringing appears in the press about the seemingly
350 unstoppable ascendance of a few large corporations in
351 computing. Everything seems to be increasingly centralized in such
352 corporations (a trend popularly called the "cloud," although Richard
353 Stallman has repeatedly criticized the use of that buzzword). This
354 presentation will explain why such centralization and the triumph of
355 first movers is facilitated by three technological factors: the end of
356 Moore's Law, compiling complex algorithms into hardware (which may
357 reach its climax in quantum computing), and the value of aggregating
358 large amounts of data.</p>

459 <p>Over the last decade, Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) have
460 acted as the pillars of application development. They provide
461 mechanisms which allow applications to communicate with each
462 other. Developers can integrate various APIs into their code to create
463 entirely new applications.</p>
464 <p>Unfortunately, users of an API are held hostage to the licensing of
465 its creator. If an API is not free software compliant, then none of
466 its users can build free software off of it. Using the Google Maps API
467 as a case study, we will examine the ethical and technological
468 implications of providing open, but not free, access to an API.</p>

543 people from around the world to collaborate with each other, but
544 large-scale collaboration is difficult, and the best practices for
545 effective collaboration are still being worked out by organizers,
546 developers, and collaborators. Free software has provided working
547 examples of large-scale collaborative communities, as well as
548 practical tools for those communities to use. Tools like MediaWiki,
549 Loomio, Discourse, Etherpad, and Git all provide functionality useful

576 <p>GPL enforcement is an integral part of software freedom, but we lack
577 systematic evidence on what kind of benefits successful enforcement
578 can provide us. In this session, I discuss a case in which GPL
579 enforcement led to quantifiable benefits for customers: GPL violations
580 by Cisco/Linksys, and the emergence of OpenWRT. In 2003, Cisco/Linksys
581 was found to be in violation of the GPL by distributing GNU/Linux
582 source code with its WRT54G. Successful negotiations by the FSF led
583 Cisco/Linksys to release source code, creating a wide array of custom
584 firmware projects. </p>
585 <p>In this talk, I collect data on wireless routers, custom firmware
586 compatibility, and match this to Amazon.com reviews. I show that users
587 value routers compatible with OpenWRT, and that these products have
588 higher reviews and sell more. This talk highlights the importance of
589 measuring the impact of GPL enforcement, and shows how GPL
590 enforcement can benefit customers.</p>

872 <p>The foundation for the immense success of free software was our shared
873 value of enabling and maintaining end user freedom. The licenses we
874 developed lowered the barrier between producers and consumers of
875 software, and enable everyone to pursue their passions in collaboration
876 with others. Participating in any of today's diverse wealth of free software
877 communities can be immensely rewarding... and if we're doing it right, just plain fun!</p>
878 <p>In this session, Bdale will offer some advice based on his experience
879 having fun working on free software, punctuated with examples from his
880 propensity for eventually turning all of his hobbies into free
881 software projects.</p>

1041 <p>OpenStreetMap (OSM) began in 2004 as a reaction to the high cost of
1042 geospatial information. Initially data was mostly collected by handheld
1043 GPS, so the OSM of 2004 looks very different from the OSM of 2019. OSM is still
1044 powered by individual mappers collecting data, but the variety of ways the
1045 information is created and the ways it is used and distributed has expanded
1046 greatly. This talk will briefly review the history of OSM, why it is so
1047 important, how it has changed, and where it might be headed in the future.</p>

1071 <p>I'll be discussing what codes of conduct are intended to
1072 protect. No code will be appropriate in all contexts; free software
1073 projects' needs and cultures differ enough so that no single code of
1074 conduct can cover them all. Groups need to establish their own codes,
1075 according to their needs and current culture.</p>
1076 <p>Before arguing what codes of conduct should say, how they should be
1077 implemented, and who should enforce them, we need to consider what
1078 these codes might protect and why. Then, in the future, any given
1079 group might think better about criteria for proposed communication

1180 developers. Users use software, while developers write it. How does
1181 one transition between just using software and making it? One easy
1182 way to help free software projects is to report bugs and suggest
1183 features. This talk will walk you through the step-by-step process of

1250 <p>Free software will not win by "merely" replacing proprietary software. We
1251 need to lead with a vision of how the world could be. A voluntary
1252 community, one where people participate by choice, does not have to
1253 replicate the power structures, gatekeeping, or casual cruelty of the
1254 systems it seeks to replace. We could make free software the most
1255 empowering place to build software. Free software tools could enable new
1256 ways of crafting user experiences that proprietary software providers seem
1257 unwilling to offer. Free software could transform the relationship between
1258 users and developers, so that users feel like partners instead of sales
1259 metrics. Free software communities should be seeking to outdo proprietary
1260 software's methods and social norms in every possible way.</p>
1261 <p>We've made a great start by empowering many technical and semi-technical
1262 users, but we can't stop there. (What kind of utopia only has coders in
1263 it?) Let's build a kinder and more practical free software movement to
1264 empower all kinds of people!</p>

1288 <p>Architectural bugs Spectre and Meltdown have caused major panic and
1289 still worry many. Oddly, some proposed mitigations that require
1290 installing proprietary blobs have not caused similar worries, despite
1291 growing awareness about prevalent data collection, built-in backdoors,
1292 and the risks of placing too much trust in software and hardware
1293 designers with interests not aligned with those of users. Who can we
1294 trust, then? What lessons are there for the free software community?
1295 Being suspicious of Web blobs and foggy computing, and not victimizing
1296 anyone through them, do we have anything to fear but fear itself?</p>

1358 <p>Words like "wizardry" and "incantation" have long been used to
1359 describe skillful computational feats. But neither computers nor
1360 their users are performing feats of magic; for systems to think, we
1361 must tell them how.</p>
1362 <p>Today, users most often follow a carefully choreographed workflow that
1363 thinks <em>for</em> them, limited by a narrow set of premeditated
1364 possibilities. But there exist concepts that offer virtually no
1365 limits on freedom of expression or thought, blurring the distinction
1366 between "user" and "programmer."</p>
1367 <p>This session demonstrates a range of practical possibilities when a
1368 machine acts as an extension of the user's imagination, for the
1369 technical and nontechnical alike.</p>

1466 <p>Controlling your machines is necessary for software freedom, and vice
1467 versa. But amid frequent news of data breaches, security sometimes
1468 feels out of reach. There is hope: with security education for
1469 hackers, security-enhancing features embedded into free operating
1470 systems and application platforms, and a mindful approach to data
1471 collection and management, we will prevail.</p>
1472 <p>In this session, I’ll share how hackers can maintain control over
1473 their own computing, even in adversarial environments. I'll also share
1474 high-impact ways to secure your computing using free software, and

1500 <p>Our technological prowess can defend democracy or destroy it. In 2016,
1501 the world got an indication of the direction in which we are
1502 headed. But it’s not too late to change course. The change starts with
1503 the Web’s infrastructure. In this session, Danny explains how the
1504 modern Web threatens democracy, why we must decentralize the Web using
1505 technology like FreedomBox, and what you can do today. In 2010, the
1506 FreedomBox project was launched. After nine years, it has arrived to
1507 help you save the day. But FreedomBox itself won’t save the day. You
1508 will. How? Join this session to learn.</p>

1546 <p>We are living in a society where -- as mere individuals -- it
1547 seems out of our control and in the hands of those who have the power
1548 to publish and distribute information swiftly and widely, or who can
1549 refuse to publish or distribute information. Algorithms now sort us
1550 into Global databases like PRISM or ECHELON, and there are devices
1551 such as StingRay cell phone trackers used to categorize our every
1552 movement. We may build our own profiles online, but we do not have
1553 access to the meta-profile built by the corporate entities that our
1554 queries traverse as we navigate online, purchasing goods and services
1555 as well as logging into sites where we have accounts. The level of
1556 intrusion into our most private thoughts should be alarming, yet most
1557 fail to heed the call as they feel small, alone, and unable to defy the
1558 scrutiny of disapproval from the powers that govern societal norms and
1559 their peers. Together, we can change this.</p>
1560 <p>Micky will engage your mind on a journey to open an ongoing discussion
1561 to rediscover and reawaken your own creative thought processes.
1562 Together, we build a conversation that should never end as it will join
1563 us together transparently maintaining our freedoms, with free software
1564 as the foundation. Where do we find our personal power, and how do we
1565 use it as developers? Do we have a collective goal? Have you checked
1566 your social credit rating lately? Others have.</p>
