What is FreedomBox? And when can I have one?

[[!tag talk]]

The FreedomBox is a project to help you to stay in control of your own privacy on the internet. Why is this needed? Because you often loose or have to give up privacy rights in whole or in part when you participate in centralised social network platforms. Privacy concerned computer enthusiasts have practised protection of personal digital freedoms for quite some time now, using a range of well known and reliable technical tools. FreedomBox is aiming at putting those tools is a tiny low-power box, but improved to be dead-easy to use for anyone. Jonas will explain the current state of the FreedomBox project and explore and expose what is fundamentally at stake and show how each of you can turn the internet around to serve yourself and thereby all of us. And to do that in the EP, you might actually need a hedgehog to help you!
