Saturday, July 13, 2024: 2:00 pm (Little Theatre): All Computers Are Broken. The hacker scene knows this and fights against it every day. But what about the regular people in your life, those who describe themselves as "not that technical?" They're the ones who are often most at risk in the hellscape that is the Internet today. How do we help them understand what's happening when they go online, and how to protect themselves from the worst of it? Librarians, that's how! Library Freedom Project is an organization that trains librarians on issues of technology, surveillance, privacy, open source intelligence, free culture, and how to organize collectively towards a better world. The LFP believes librarians are an essential front in the fight to create more democratic and free Internet. Come hear what they're up to, and why their work won the EFF Award for Information Democracy in 2023.
