privacy aware computers for non-techies

In this sos, we discuss if and how an NGO could offer off-the-shelf computers whose soft- and hardware is independent of those data hungry enterprises.
For non-techies, it is a challenge to find and configure personal electronic devices that respect their privacy. Hence, the majority of people are living under permanent surveillance and their data is capitalized by one of those big companies. This is a terrible situation, not only for individuals, but also for organizations that work with sensitive data. And, after all, for all of us because surveillance capitalism threatens democratic societies. In a better world, there would be a low-threshold offer of reasonable priced off-the-shelf devices provided by an organization that respects the users' privacy! If you also want to make the world a better place, come and share your knowledge. Let's have a tea and discuss how a to-be-founded NGO could make privacy aware devices available for anyone.

Wer nicht Chefredakteur einer großen Zeitung ist, kann auf andere Art die öffentliche Debatte vorantreiben: Kommunikationsguerilla im öffentlichen Raum schafft Erregungskorridore, an denen die öffentliche Debatte aufgehängt werden kann. Wir haben den Hergang verschiedener vergangener Projekte, kleinere wie größere, rekonstruiert und geben Tipps zu Theorie und Praxis.

Just one sign switched and all of physics changes: Moving objects lose kinetic energy instead of gaining it and radiating objects get hotter instead of colder. Infinite velocity and infinite temperature are no longer impossible. Stars look like rainbow-colored lines instead of white dots and turning your arrow of time around into your own past is just as easy as turning from left to right. In this talk, we will explore the physics in a spacetime with signature (+,+,+,+) as presented by Greg Egan ...
