In many indigenous, non-urban, or alternative communities in Mexico (and around the world), respect for nature, attachment to the land, preservation of memory and traditions, and strong traditions of organization are crucial to surviving. However, these mindsets and practices are not compatible with the dominant technological rationality, which separates the land, the people, their cultures, and their affections. The current model of technological development can create poverty, exclusion, the loss of natural resources, and even death.
-
-In this workshop, we will imagine alternative frameworks and models of technology development that are respectful of human rights, community traditions, and the environment. How could free software development help disadvantaged communities? How can we imagine other futures, where technological advancement is controlled more closely by the people affected by it? From these questions, the participant will propose ideas to design alternative frameworks that consider cultural diversity, the defense of human rights, and life on Earth.

They are learning all the time.

Games are tools for human learning. In this workshop, we will share two board games that we have developed as didactic tools to promote the use of free software and the recognition of communities based on free culture, while recovering the playful joy of learning and sharing. Both games have been the result of our experience facilitating workshops on the use of free software and digital security with historically excluded people. In this session, we will reflect on how play is necessary for learning, and how we can create games, and then we’ll enjoy these games together.

The time is ripe to build a strong case for individual self-hosting, backed up by community-hosted public network services with mutual trust among members. In this talk, I will build a strong case for individual self-hosting backed up by community-hosted public network services by drawing parallels to Mahatma Gandhi's "Charkha Movement," in which the traditional spinning wheel became a powerful symbol of self-sufficiency and freedom. We will need a similar approach within our communities in order to truly own our devices and networks, and reclaim our right to privacy.

-
Free software comprises a commons shared and coordinated voluntarily by users, developers, and others. If we think of free software participants as a self-governing community, they need paths toward setting their own expectations and standards, evaluating facts, and developing trust between them. Those are three interrelated but different kinds of processes. When one of these processes is disrupted, we rely on the others. When all three are disrupted, crises can spiral. Each may need to change, be reconfirmed, or left as an open question.
-
-In this talk, we'll explore practical approaches for community leaders, moderators, and contributors, as well as concepts of deliberative democracy from Habermas' theory of communicative action.

MADDES Secret Lair: Matty's Advanced Deniable Disk Encryption Setup

-
-: Sunday -: Justice -
-: Workshop -
-
This session will be a demonstration of how MADDES (Matty's Advanced Deniable Disk Encryption Setup) Secret Lair can be implemented on a GNU/Linux OS. The demonstration will be using either PureOS 9 or Ubuntu 18.04. MADDES allows for plausible deniability with full disk encryption (FDE), including "/boot" and auto generation support for grub-install, grub-mkconfig, and for kernel update (i.e. update-initramfs). VeraCrypt FDE for GNU/Linux has not been possible before, nor has auto generation support for detached header/random looking devices without the use of MADDES, to my knowledge.
