[sudo-discuss] Cryptoparty + Lightning Talks, this Saturday at Sudo Room!

The last day of the Bay Area Public School / Sudo Room's weeklong Summer School program, Information Day kicks off with a 3-hour Cryptoparty starting at 12pm. We'll be showing people how to run Tor (anonymous browsing), set up private and public keys for authentication, use encrypted chat, and secure their phone calls. All skill levels welcome! The day will culminate in a series of lightning talks from 3-6pm, featuring Moxie Marlinspike of Open Whisper Systems <https://whispersystems.org/>, Danny O'Brien and Bill Budington from the EFF <http://eff.org>, Craig Rouskey from the GETit citizen science phage therapy research<http://sudoroom.org/wiki/Phage_therapy>group;group, and Marc Juul and Jenny Ryan from the Oakland Mesh <http://sudoroom.org/wiki/Mesh> networking group. Potential plans also include a surveillance tour of the neighborhood led by some of the folks involved in the Domain Awareness Center campaign. We'll conclude the evening with free drinks and dancing! Sudo Room is located at 2141 Broadway St, two blocks from the 19th St Oakland BART. Curl left around the corner at 22nd - the entrance is on 22nd St. We'll be running from 12-6, so drop in anytime. Flier attached. Come and party like it's 1984! :P Jenny http://jennyryan.net http://thepyre.org http://thevirtualcampfire.org http://technomadic.tumblr.com `~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~` "Technology is the campfire around which we tell our stories." -Laurie Anderson "Storytelling reveals meaning without committing the error of defining it." -Hannah Arendt "To define is to kill.
