Digital Empowerment in Rural India - powered by FreedomBox.

Sudhamsh Kandukuri and I presented yesterday at XConf India 2018.

An inspiring story of a grassroots movement where people rejected Facebook's Free Basics and installed low-cost community Wi-Fi networks instead.
A FreedomBox on the network provides most of the essential digital services required, offline.

The prepare to ask today more direct and demand to insert the “Referendum of Citizen Initiative” () into the Constitution [1].

The Gilets Jaunes often did and are organizing around . That’s maybe why they are so successful.

But there is more out there to escape the Orwellian state:

Nex  

I released a new version of my Firefox extension that will forcefully redirect you away from privacy erosive services to better alternatives. It started as a joke, but I end up actually using it.

When I want to look up a place, I instinctively and mechanically start typing "maps.googl...". This extension will instead take me to OpenStreetMaps. It will also functionally translate Google Search links to DuckDuckGo and Google Translate links to Deepl.

FUCK OFF GOOGLE!1!!!1  

NOISE AGAINST GOOGLE &CO!

Friday 07/12 - 18:00 - Umspannwerk, #Kreuzberg, #Berlin

wiki.fuckoffgoogle.de/index.ph

Google &co still watching!!

While #google canceled its "campus" in #Kreuzberg, they still occupy the building, while tech-startup bullshit still hits hard on the 'hood.

Join a festive occasion of meeting with neighbors, having fun and moving towards the next steps of action! <3

5 years ago: Digital Feudalism and How to Avoid It

vimeo.com/77257232

I learned a lot in those five years and we’re still working for the same goals. Surveillance Capitalism is worse than it ever was but we also have new hopes: @Purism, Mastodon, @gnome, DAT, …

The one thing I’d change is to replace “open source” with “ethical technology” and “free (as in freedom)” in my words.

Facebook and Twitter lost 20% of their value. 🎆 😂 🎆

We need to keep hitting them hard until they collapse.

When the next action?

Few ideas:

May 1st ( Worker's Day)

May 25, gafam.laquadrature.net

September 12, FB Boycott:

Can we plan ONE big day every ~3 months where we ALL come TOGETHER to beat the s**t out of the investors and provoke an extra stock plunge?
