'''the BAY AREA PUBLIC SCHOOL & sudo room'''
Every Third Sunday of the month from 2-5pm, Sudo Room hosts an afternoon of co-learning and teaching about digital security. The driving motivation of our cryptoparties is to learn about end-user security in a fun, welcoming and inclusive environment. Popular topics include: why digital security is important; strategies for activists and journalists; encrypted email; encrypted text messaging; encrypted phone calls; encrypting your hard drive; off-the-record instant messaging; secure web browsing; mesh networks; and presentations on newer projects. All skill levels welcome - bring your phone and/or laptop!

*Starting the cryptoparty:
**Take notes on the wiki - set up a separate wiki page for that month's event [eg; /wiki/Cryptoparty/YEAR/MONTHNAME
**Allow 15-30 minutes to get to a good group size to start
**Go around the room and ask folks to introduce themselves, their level of skill w/ crypto, what they're interested in discussing or working on that afternoon.
**Create an agenda ad-hoc and split the group as needed (pairs work great for things like helping someone set up disk encryption)
**Have fun! Encourage wide-ranging discussion but step in if things start to get to technical. Keep focus on those who are newer to the topic and have specific things they want to accomplish.

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 (eff.org), Craig Rouskey from the GETit citizen science phage therapy research group (http://sudoroom.org/wiki/Phage_therapy), and Marc Juul and Jenny Ryan from the Oakland Mesh networking group (http://sudoroom.org/wiki/Mesh).
 
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
