+ <title>Technopolice: One year of activism against surveillance technologies</title>
+ <abstract>Technopolice is a French movement aiming to analyze and document the spread of surveillance technologies in our cities and lives, in order to defend civil rights and liberties. The movement was initiated by La Quadrature du Net in 2019, and was followed by other organizations and individuals in a decentralized way. In this talk we will go through:
+
+ - one year of study and activism in the Technopolice movement;
+
+ - how we collectively gather information on these ongoning projects;
+
+ - how we legally, technically, ethically and socially analyze and debate on them;
+
+ - how we try to make them visible and understandable to non-technical users;
+
+ - how people, artists, activists, and citizens can resist;
+
+ - how we can all spread the word, that this is not our future, and not the one that we have chosen;
+
+ - how we value freedom, transparency, ethics;
+
+ - how we value common goods and that our future is ours to build.</abstract>

+ <title>"Logiciel libre, société libre": Free software activism in France and Europe</title>
+ <abstract>Founded in 1996, April is the main French advocacy association devoted to promoting and protecting free/libre software. Since 1996, it has been a major player in the democratization and the spread of free software and open standards to the general public, professionals and institutions in the French-speaking world. It also acts as a watchdog on digital freedoms, warning the public about the dangers of private interests keeping an exclusive stranglehold on information and knowledge.
+
+Free software cannot develop fully without a benevolent political and legislative environment. That is where April plays a crucial role in France and Europe, along with allied organizations. Its actions, thanks to its volunteers and its staff, are precious for everyone who produces and/or uses free software. It is the organization's small contribution to the free software movement. Étienne Gonnu, an April staff member, will present on how it operates, the current French and European issues April is working on, and share future perspectives, strategies, successes, and challenges.</abstract>

+ <title>Right to Repair</title>
+ <abstract>What if everyone had free access to a repair manual for everything they owned? Making repair accessible to everyone is the best shot we’ve got at reducing e-waste and starting to make our high-tech lives sustainable.
+
+Right to repair is working to make that happen--to restore a small amount of freedom to the hardware world. We've introduced legislation in over 20 states and are pushing manufacturers to release schematics and security patches for embedded systems.
+
+Learn the latest in the fight from one of the leaders of the movement. We're also in the midst of a big fight over the most evil section of the DMCA, the dreaded Section 1201 that bans breaking encryption on hardware that you rightfully own.</abstract>

+ <title>Usable security for end-users: How Tor improves usability without compromising user privacy</title>
+ <abstract>The Tor network, used by 2.5 million users every day, protects their privacy via “onion routing,” which directs Internet traffic – email, instant messages, online posts, Web form visits, and more – through a multilayered network that obfuscates who the user is, thus concealing their identity and location.
+
+Because our design prioritizes privacy, our tools gather very little information about our users. Early in 2018, we began our User Research Program, where we incorporated user research as part of our outreach security trainings by doing interviews and collecting user feedback on the tools we taught participants during the training. So far, this program has reached an audience of over 800 people in countries like Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, India, Indonesia, Kenya and Uganda. The methods of conducting open user research and collecting usability feedback mentioned above have been informing design decisions in every stable Tor Browser release since 7.5 (and we’re up to 10.0.2!).
+
+During this presentation we will share our human-centered design methodologies and the impact they had in releasing usable free software PET's.</abstract>

+ <title>Jami and how it empowers users</title>
+ <abstract>Jami is free software for universal communication which respects the freedoms and privacy of its users. Jami is an official GNU package with a main goal of providing a framework for virtual communications, along with a series of end-user applications for audio/video calling and conferencing, text messaging, and file transfer.
+
+With the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, working from home has become the norm for many workers around the world. More and more people are using videoconferencing tools to work or communicate with their loved ones. The emergence of these tools has been followed by many questions and scandals concerning the privacy and freedom of users.
+
+This talk gives an introduction to Jami, a free/libre, truly distributed, and peer-to-peer solution, and explains why and how it differs from all other existing solutions and how it empowers users.</abstract>

+ <title>Lessons Framasoft has learned</title>
+ <abstract>Framasoft is a small, French nonprofit, made up of only thirty-five members and ten employees.
+
+We've been promoting free/libre software and its culture for more than fifteen years. From a collaborative free software directory to a publishing house, from hosting more than thirty-five free/libre services (our Dégooglify the Internet campaign) to initiating a libre hosts collective (CHATONS), from PeerTube (free and federated alternative to YouTube) to Mobilizon (same, but for Facebook groups and events)...
+
+We've tried a lot of things to help change the world, one byte at the time!
+
+We want to share our experience outside of French boarders, so it can be studied and (hopefully) copied and adapted to other languages and cultures.</abstract>

+ <title>The defense of the GNOME Foundation</title>
+ <abstract>In August 2019, GNOME was notified that it was being sued in the state of California over a broad patent which allegedly covered Shotwell, a photo management application. The plaintiff? A prolific filer of patent suits, and a patent assertion entity. This was the first time that a free software project has been sued for patent infringement.
+
+This talk is the story from the executive director of the GNOME Foundation, on how he responded and the strategies taken to not only defeat the suit, but to secure a groundbreaking agreement which means that this particular PAE will never be able to sue any free software project ever again.</abstract>

+ <title>The challenges of change for values-centered nonprofits</title>
+ <abstract>Organizational change is never easy. It can be particularly challenging in values-centered non-profits, where calls for healthy organizational change can be seen as criticism or a threat to the core values. This conversation between two long-time nonprofit leaders will dive into organizational change at two tech- and values-centered nonprofits, the Sunlight Foundation (where former leaders were accused of sexual harassment) and at the Wikimedia Foundation (where a sweeping strategic process has resulted in a broader vision that goes beyond free licensing to explicitly include equity). By seeing how one organization tried to rebuild after crisis, and another proactively reimagined its role in the broader free ecosystem, attendees should come away with ideas for how their own communities (small and large) can address the past and look towards the future.</abstract>

+ <title>Bridging the digital divide in education with free software and hardware</title>
+ <abstract>In the current digital era, knowledge systems are available and accessible in many forms digitally, making learning a easier process for almost everyone who has access to them. For instance, a primary school student is able to work on electronics, robotics, and programming.
+
+ On the flipside, there are underprivileged students who do not have access to even a basic computer due to lack of IT infrastructure in their schools. This creates a digital divide.
+
+To bridge the divide, we can use free software like GNU/Linux, free hardware designs, and freely licensed educational materials. The BalaSwecha project makes use of all these to develop a GNU/Linux distribution based on interactive learning principles for children studying in underprivileged and underfunded schools. The presentation will deal about details and execution of this community project.</abstract>

+ <title>Freeing networks where we need freedom most</title>
+ <abstract>The struggle for the freedom of Internet is ever growing. Corporations, and their partner in crime, governments, come up with new clever ideas to restrict free flow of information. Overlords of the truth are trying to recover old control, which the Internet has eroded everywhere in favor of the people.
+
+Networking and freedom of communication are meant to be great equalizers. That would be true if carriers of communication signals could come out of thin air. Like the land and means of production, our signals depend on existing infrastructure, and the lords who own them are an obstacle to the freedom of the people. Freifunk is a non-commercial, grassroots initiative to support free computer networks in the German region. We try to apply the same principles in Turkey, bringing power back to the people.</abstract>

+ <title>Gamifying education the libre way</title>
+ <abstract>Gamification is a concept that has flourished in the digital age. By leveraging the high interactivity and enticing incentives of game design with tight feedback loops, difficult concepts can be absorbed with little effort. But can a complex and controversial topic such as climate change be transformed into a fun and exciting learning opportunity? In this talk, we will explore how the philosophy of free software has been used to do exactly that by showing what we did to create and modify our own game and discuss how it can be applied in empowering educators and students to gamify their own interests.</abstract>

+ <title>Manufactura Independente: 10 years of designing in the libre</title>
+ <abstract>In 2010, we started Manufactura Independente, a space to develop our design practice using free/libre software. At the time we had just finished our studies and learnt the hard way how proprietary software and file formats can own your work. While our first dip in the waters was tough -- installing a new OS, understanding new tools, rejecting proprietary options -- the path was clear: we were in control, we became users, contributors and owners of the tools we employed. With each project we set out to explore tools and principles, going beyond "open" towards a framing of copyleft and freedom in the graphic arts. 10 years went by and we want to underscore that anniversary by sharing our work, tools and stories of how we grew to love the GNU, and how free software ideals came to redefine our design practice, and are more relevant than ever today.</abstract>

+ <title>Adopting free software ideals</title>
+ <abstract>Adopting free software ideals can be confusing and challenging for individuals, filled with cognitive dissonance and questioning of practicality. Am I a bad person if I use nonfree software? What example should I set as a free software activist or advocate? How does that relate to responsibilities of developers and distributors?

It contains some awkward discussions that free software activists like to avoid, and hopes to guide those seeking to adopt more free software ideals, but fear they may not be able to meet such high standards. It's a talk about evolution and growth.
+
+But complacency in the face of conflict can also dilute our ideals. So this is also a talk about balancing ideals in the context of one's own unique circumstances, while at the same time preserving a strong message about software freedom.</abstract>

+ <title>3NWeb: A Better digital world is possible</title>
+ <abstract>Monopolization and centralization decreases our resilience in unstable times. In this session, we present decentralized services designed around the principle of least authority: the 3NWeb free software protocols and client. 3NWeb use cases include encrypted messaging and storage, which we will demonstrate. The protocols can be run over anonymous networks such as Tor. We need to share our knowledge and collectively move our society to be more immune to crisis via increased deployment of free software. 3NWeb can help the world move one more step in that direction.</abstract>

+ <abstract>A lightning talk is a five-minute presentation on any topic that you think would be interesting to a group of free software users, hackers, and activists. Each session has time for a total of twelve talks. Since we're seeking a breadth of relevant topics, submitting a talk does not guarantee you a slot.
+

+ <title>REUSE: Simple steps to declare your copyright and licenses</title>
+ <abstract>Free software licensing can be tiresome. But setting the conditions for the use and reuse of your code is extremely important. To make developers' lives easier, there is the REUSE initiative. This presentation will explain simple yet powerful best practices for defining licenses and copyright holders.
+
+In three easy steps, you can make sure that for all files are labelled clearly.
+
+No matter how complex you project is, REUSE keeps you covered. With the additional documents and tools, you can increase the time you actually can concentrate on coding.
+
+Join the session to learn about the principles and see a live demo of how we make a project REUSE compliant.</abstract>

+ <title>Plom: Paperless Open Marking</title>
+ <abstract>We will present Paperless Open Marking (Plom), a software system for giving tests on paper, but marking and returning them online. We (undergraduate students) worked on this software as a summer project.
+
+Plom was developed because existing grading software was usually proprietary, too expensive, did not allow for the complexity of multiversioned tests required for crowded exam rooms, and might not respect local privacy laws. Plom respects privacy of student data: all data stays on your server, and markers do not see student names or IDs while they are marking.
+
+ Plom is GPLv3 licensed and is currently in use at the University of British Columbia. As an undergraduate student team, we made significant improvements to the functionality and correctness of Plom, and are excited to share our contributions with you.</abstract>

+ <title>Machine agency: Infrastructure for creative automation</title>
+ <abstract>How can we harness the precision of machines for the creativity of individuals? Automation and computer control of machines is increasingly widespread. However, it's often employed for dull, dirty, or dangerous tasks. This is partially because setting up these systems is complex and time consuming. How can we instead lower the threshold to automation such that it can be employed for experimental and explorational practices? In this talk, I will describe my research group's machine designs, and perhaps more importantly, discuss the attributes that makes them buildable, tailorable, and extendable by others.</abstract>

+ <abstract>SecureDrop is a whistleblowing platform originally created in 2012 for journalists to accept leaked documents safely from anonymous sources. It's used by dozens of news organizations including The Guardian, The Washington Post and The New York Times. This talk introduces the SecureDrop Workstation, the next-generation platform aimed at helping journalists communicate with sources in a high-security environment. Based on Qubes OS, the SecureDrop Workstation leverages Xen hypervisor isolation to manage sensitive source material safely, including viewing, archiving, and processing documents. The talk will review the results of the recent security audit focusing on the Workstation, and outline future directions for the project as it approaches general availability.</abstract>

+ <abstract>The labor movement and free software are natural complements to one another. Both rely on (often decentralized) groups of workers that commit to a higher purpose in the pursuit of building something that will advance people on a larger scale. I’ll discuss the ways that values of free software and labor movements complement one another. I will outline the practical technology needs of labor organizations that could be met by free software. Finally I will talk about what attendees can do to support labor movements with free software by describing some promising organizations looking to bridge the gap.</abstract>

+ <abstract>Over 100 teams attempted to create free/libre solutions to address the shortage of ventilators caused by the COVID-19 pandemic; we created a large spreadsheet evaluating all of them along many coordinates. Slowly, teams coalesced into a global community and began cooperating. There were many successes, failures, and learnings. The community had pioneered techniques that were re-used inconsistently to organize teams. The overall effect was mixed in terms of its success developing ventilators, but very successful in advancing the global free hardware community. We present this story from the point of view of a full-time active participant in many organizations.</abstract>

+ <title>User Respecting Software – free software development driven by users</title>
+ <abstract>Why is it that some free software projects, although started at the same time as comparable propriety projects, are still playing catch-up in terms of number of users and desired features? Features comparisons as well as the network effect and how well known a piece of software is play into this, but what features do users find most important? We can’t make “better” software until we know what features users actually care about. This talk will explore prominent examples of free software projects and look at how free software can stay ahead of the curve.</abstract>

+ <title>Remote education: My children's freedom and privacy at stake</title>
+ <abstract>During COVID-19 confinement, I saw how all teachers were choosing proprietary video conferencing programs over free software for the continuation of online lessons.
+
+I had two options: do nothing about it and let proprietary video conferencing tools spread among my children and their classmates, or try to fight back against this injustice.
+
+My paramount concern was for my own children. I knew in advance what it meant to start this battle. Moreover, this could affect my children’s feelings. They were not attending school and they were already facing a very complex challenge by being forced to stay at home. On the other hand, I was also afraid of having some kind of retaliation from their teachers against them because of my fight.
+
+I didn’t want any of these things to happen. I needed to decide what to do, and evaluate if my commitment towards the free software movement was more important than my own children, or if I had to let it go this time.
+
+I concluded that the answer was not either face a big fight or do nothing, I could do something in between; that at least would be better than doing nothing.</abstract>

+ <title>An information theoretic model of privacy and security metrics</title>
+ <abstract>An information theoretic model of privacy and security metrics - or - how I learned to stop worrying about password meters and love the dice.
+
+Since 2010, EFF has maintained a project dubbed Panopticlick, which aims to help users understand a technique called browser fingerprinting. Web trackers are able to stitch together little bits of information the users browser leaves behind into a cohesive whole, a fingerprint which follows them across their usage of the Web. Panopticlick is able to quantify the amount of information your browser leaks through the use of an information theoretical approach to privacy which determines how much information each individual metric (say, a user's list of fonts) reveals, and the relationship of these individual metrics to how much a browser reveals in general. Many of the misconceptions users have when using the site reflect an unclear picture about how their browser fingerprint is arrived at, and often leads users down a path that *decreases* their overall privacy in an attempt to increase it.</abstract>

+ <abstract>I've always been a free software programmer, a contractor to the rich and already powerful so they could use free software to its fullest. But, users, normal everyday users, are left out, and their needs are often different from business, universities and other large organizations who can afford to pay developers.

+I wanted to develop Inkscape for users, and to do this I have started asking users to fund me directly. Four Inkscape developers currently use a personal funding platform to try and raise the money needed to make our activities more stable and user-focused.

+ <abstract>In past years, free software projects have increased their usability considerably. Still, one of the main reasons users with no technical background don't use many free software projects in their daily routine is that some projects don't offer good usability, which drives them into choosing proprietary solutions.

+ <title>Openwifi project: The dawn of the free/libre WiFi chip</title>
+ <abstract>In past decades, free software has played a key role towards the free and trusted Internet. In recent years, free software processor projects like RISC-V have pushed forward to construct free devices and computers. However, the radio connectivity of the device still relies on the black box silicons (WiFi, BLE, cellular chips). The Openwifi project (https://github.com/open-sdr/openwifi) aims to offer an free WiFi chip design that could act as the missing piece of the free software and hardware puzzle. As the initial step, the Openwifi project has implemented the 802.11a/g full-stack on an FPGA-based software defined radio (SDR) platform. The 802.11n feature is funded by NLnet and is under development. This presentation will give you the project overview and discuss the future of the project.</abstract>

+ <title>Ingestum: A FOSS NLP document ingestion library</title>
+ <abstract>Many NLP projects that depend upon the analysis of documents are impaired by the difficulty of transforming source material into a computer-readable format. For example, PDF files are designed for human consumption but can look like a bag full of words to a computer. To address this problem engineers at Sorcero developed Ingestum, a library that is used to "devour" content sources, outputting a format that can be used for additional processing. Ingestum has four main concepts:
+
+Sources - common content sources that feed the ingestion process, e.g. PDF, HTML, PNG, WAV, Twitter, email, et al.
+
+Documents - the intermediary and final states of a source during the ingestion process.
+
+Transformers - a transformation function that can be applied a document, e.g. removing hyphens from a text document.
+
+Conditionals - a logic conditional operation that can be use to modify the behavior of a transformer.</abstract>

+ <title>A dispatch from the front lines of right to repair</title>
+ <abstract>FUD fighting on the front lines of right to repair: As our homes, workplaces and public spaces fill with Internet-connected "smart" stuff, a digital right to repair is critical to protecting consumer rights, property rights and civil liberties. Despite that, electronics giants like Apple, Samsung, LG and General Electric have snuffed out scores of proposed state laws seeking to create such a right. How? By scaring legislators with tales of device hacking, cyber stalking and identity theft.
+
+Creating a legal right to repair our stuff means short-circuiting these arguments and injecting a dose of facts into hearings and public debate. In this presentation, Paul Roberts, the founder of SecuRepairs, provides a dispatch from the front lines of right to repair and how his group of more than 200 IT and information security professionals is doing battle to set the record straight on cybersecurity and the right to repair.</abstract>

+ <title>Beyond "learning to code": How Tech Learning Collective merges IT training with emancipatory political action</title>
+ <start>20:35</start>
+ <duration>00:45</duration>
+ <abstract>What good is a pen if the paper it touches can refuse to show its ink? What good is your app when your API key is revoked? Through metaphor and with a unique apprenticeship-based pedagogy, Tech Learning Collective (TLC) is empowering users by doing exactly what code boot camps and corporate-funded "learn to code" programs don't: TLC tells students to ignore new Web frameworks and focus instead on the lowest layers of an IT stack like physical network and hardware storage devices. At TLC, infrastructure is the heart of a free software curriculum eschewing common rush-to-employment training paradigms in favor of Socratic classrooms where practicing Bash commands seamlessly meld with lectures about Gnostic influences on Ethernet, the relationship between Gregorian chants and bootloaders, and more. Come see why and how TLC's holistic approach to IT education is creating communities of activist sysadmins out of people who wouldn't otherwise have called themselves "techies."</abstract>
