FreedomBox - Helps You Stay Free!
[[!meta date="2013-05-25"]]
[[!tag talk debian blog fb]]
On saturday 25. of May I gave a talk about FreedomBox
at the "Claim back your device" track of LinuxTag in Berlin.
LinuxTag is a fairly big annual conference
about (yes, you guessed right) Linux and related topics.
The FreedomBox is a project to help non-geeks care about their
personal privacy when online, same ways as geeks have practiced for a
decade or more. Concrete goal is to design a small, cheap physical box
similar to an internet gateway or wifi router
but with three additions:
- Easy and intuitive to setup and personalize for non-geeks
- Offers routines to help you protect your privacy
- Offers routines to let you help others in need of privacy
"Privacy" is commonly mistaken as "secrecy":
Privacy is to keep you in control of your information,
so that sharing or keeping to yourself is truly your own choice.
Thanks a lot especially to Matthias Kirschner for inviting me as a speaker!
