Encryption has become an essential tool for everyone (hackers, activists, researchers, journalists, etc.) who wish to protect their data and is therefore a tool that everyone should know. Description

For a complete list visit: https://help.riseup.net/ca/security/resources/radical-servers + +--- + +# Français + +L’objectif de cet atelier est de vous introduire aux concepts de chiffrement et du cryptage des communications électroniques (encryption, en anglais) et de vous initier à la pratique de cryptage des courriels selon une pédagogie féministe et dans un environnement anti-oppressif et politisé. Le recours aux communications cryptées devient de plus en plus pressant, en particulier à la suite des révélations d’Edward Snowden concernant la surveillance massive sur Internet. D’ailleurs les premières tentatives de contact entre Edward Snowden et le journaliste Glenn Greenwald ont échoué, car M. Greenwald ne savait pas crypter ses communications, particulièrement ses courriels. Du coup, c'est à Laura Poitras que Snowden a confié les documents fuités, car celle-ci utilisait le chiffrement. Le chiffrement devient donc un outil incontournable pour toutes personnes (hackers, activistes, chercheurs, journalistes, etc.) désirant protéger ses données et est par conséquent un outil que tous et toutes doivent connaître. + +## Descriptif + +L’atelier sur le chiffrement se fera en deux temps. Tout d’abord, une partie plus théorique abordera la notion de cryptage et son importance grandissante en particulier dans le contexte des révélations d’Edward Snowden sur la surveillance de masse sur Internet. Dans un deuxième temps, une partie pratique vous guidera dans l’installation de logiciels libres vous permettant de crypter vos courriels. +Objectifs spécifiques + +À la fin de cet atelier: +* Vous aurez une meilleure idée du bien-fondé de l’utilisation du chiffrement; +* Vous devriez être en mesure de chiffrer vos courriels; +* Vous aurez développé une curiosité pour la sécurité numérique. + +## À faire avant la formation + +Vous devez vous créer un nouveau compte de courriel. Les services proposés par les grands monopoles étasuniens, tels Hotmail, Yahoo ou Gmail sont peu sécuritaires et font l’objet de surveillance systématique de la part des agences gouvernementales. En tant qu'activiste s'inscrivant dans une démarche féministe, queer, anti-oppressive et anti-capitaliste une ré-approriation technologique non-corporative est essentiel. Nous vous demandons donc d’utiliser un autre service que ceux-ci tels que Riseup.net, Resist.ca, autistici.org, Poivron.org, aktivix.org ou autres. Pour une liste complète visitez : https://help.riseup.net/ca/security/resources/radical-servers N'oubliez pas que ces services sécurisés qui ne vendent/donnent pas vos données à des tiers parties sont produites par des bénévoles. Les dons sont les bienvenus! + +## Mise en garde : + +Il se peut qu’à la fin de la séance vous ne soyez pas en mesure de chiffrer vos courriels. Installer et faire fonctionner les logiciels de chiffrement peut parfois être complexe. La patience, la persévérance et la curiosité vous aideront sans aucun doute à franchir les barrières rencontrées dans une courte séance de trois heures. Nous vous invitons à vous lancer le défi d’une mainmise sur le chiffrement !

This is a theoretical framework that looks at the world through plural perspectives highlighting the relationship between gender, sexual orientations, geographical location, ethnicity, class, etc. Moreover, it is a stance that connects the dots between patriarchy, capitalism, racism and other systems of oppressions. By using such framework, we recognize and acknowledge that individuals have privileges in society, and that these modalities play out in the space we engage ourselves in whether they be online or offline and within the groups we gather. We therefore do not shy away from acknowledging privileges and aim at addressing them while at the same time attempting to create safe(r) spaces. + +## The Guided Dialogue + +We organized the day according to four main themes. These themes represented what we believe is at the core of autonomous infrastructures i.e. Space, Hardware, Software and Social Solidarities.

In a feminist hacker, maker and geek practice these include, but are not limited to: feminist hackerspaces, feminist biohacklabs, feminist activists spaces, Feminist teach convergences, etc. Within this theme presenters focused on: BioHackLabs, Bio and Body hacking, Bio Art, and finally an attempt at conceptualizing what a feminist hacking “model” might look like. + +### Hardware + +Hackers, maker and geeks have been recently involved with the development of “freer” hardware (such as 3D printers, fairphones, fair computers, mesh-networks, etc.).

Social solidarities may mean safe(r) spaces, popular education, respecting and acknowledging the incommensurability that might exist between different systems of “values” or different registers particularly, but not exclusively with indigenous systems of “values”.

We refer to the terms +hackers/hacking with a full understanding of its histories and +limitations. We understand autonomy as a desire for freedom, +self-organisation and mutual aid, whereas the term infrastructures is +understood in an expansive way meaning, but not limited to: code, +software, hardware, design, space and social solidarities. + +The second assumption is the recognition of the importance to connect +the dots between the seemingly immaterial digital age and its material +impact on the social, the labour, the environment, etc. For example: + + - the extraction of resources such as rare minerals and metals, such +as coltan, gold, copper, etc. to build our digital devices, + + - the exploitative nature of labour (online communities as +commodities, data mining by data empires, poor labour conditions in +factories designing devices, etc.) + + - the new digital spirit of capitalism that lies behind highly +controlled and secretive infrastructures (algorithmic governmentality, +closed-source design of devices, mass surveillance); + +*Background/ The origin of the idea* + +For many years now, hackers have been involved in the development of +infrastructures (often software) and have more recently started to +develop “freer” hardware (such as 3D printers, fairphones, fair +computers, mesh-networks, etc.). Some of these projects have embodied +activist resistance stances while others have rather turned into +commercial, lucrative endeavors, been recuperated by capitalism or +have become part of a “hobbying” ethos. With the emergence of a +politicised feminist hacker/hacking movement, which is building feminist +servers, feminist hackerspaces, feminist hacker convergences, etc. it +appears essential to reflect on practices and theoretical frameworks +that guide certain practices. Some of the questions that we would like +to address include, but are not limited to: + + - To which extent autonomous infrastructures enable forms of +resistance and/or separation from capitalist, patriarchal and racist +system of values? + + - How do autonomous infrastructures support/empower the +self-valorisation of those who take part in such endeavors? + + - What kind of contradictions emerge from the creation of +autonomous infrastructures? + + - What can we learn from case studies of feminist hacker and +hacking practices ? + + - Are autonomous infrastructure the way forward? + + +We hope you can join us in this first guided dialogue, which will help +us all better understand and conceptualise movements and practices that +are starting to build from the ground up. We invite you to come prepared +with a 5-10 min case study example, critical position, or any other kind +of constructive intervention. Kindly confirm participation to Sophie +Toupin @ stoupin@riseup.net + +*About FemHack* + +FemHack is an autonomous group from Montreal whose mission is to create +an empowering and inspiring environment for politicized hackers of all +genders who embrace feminist, queer and trans inflections.

We refer to the terms hakcers/hacking with a full understanding of its histories and limitations. We understand autonomy as a desire for freedom, self-organisation and mutual aid, whereas the term infrastructures is understood in an expansive way meaning, but not limited to: code, software, hardware, design, space and social solidarities. The second assumption is the recognition of the importance to connect the dots between the seemingly immaterial digital age and its material impact on the social, the labour, the environment, etc. For example: - * the extraction of resources such as rare minerals and metals, such as coltan, gold, copper, etc. to build our digital devices, - * the exploitative nature of labour (online communities as commodities, data mining by data empires, poor labour conditions in factories designing devices, etc.) - * the new digital spirit of capitalism that lies behind highly controlled and secretive infrastructures (algorithmic governmentality, closed-source design of devices, mass surveillance); +* the extraction of resources such as rare minerals and metals, such as coltan, gold, copper, etc. to build our digital devices, +* the exploitative nature of labour (online communities as commodities, data mining by data empires, poor labour conditions in factories designing devices, etc.) +* the new digital spirit of capitalism that lies behind highly controlled and secretive infrastructures (algorithmic governmentality, closed-source design of devices, mass surveillance); -== Background/ The origin of the idea == +# Background/ The origin of the idea For many years now, hackers have been involved in the development of infrastructures (often software) and have more recently started to develop "freer" hardware (such as 3D printers, fairphones, fair computers, mesh-networks, etc.).

We are organising a budget-less and volunteer-run discussion at this very moment in an attempt to reach out to researchers and to the numerous feminist hackers visiting Montreal in mid-April for the PyCon (April 8-16) and Ada Camp (April 12-13). + +== Structure of the meeting == + * Brunch: 11h-12h (coffee, bagels, fruits and croissants will be served) + * Dialogue: 12h-16h (with a short break around 14h) + + The guided dialogues session will run as follow: + * 12:00 - 12:10 Introduction to day + * 12:10 - 13:00 Exposés/Présentations (5 * 10 minutes) + * 13:00 - 14:00 Conversation around the exposés/presentations + * 14:00 - 14:15 Break + * 14:15 - 14:25 Contextualising The Way Forward? + * 14:25 - 16:00 Discussion on the Way Forward + +== Assumptions and Rationale == + +The initial assumption with the theme of this gathering is that autonomous infrastructures represent a critical perspective to approaching feminist hacker/hacking practices. We refer to the terms hakcers/hacking with a full understanding of its histories and limitations. We understand autonomy as a desire for freedom, self-organisation and mutual aid, whereas the term infrastructures is understood in an expansive way meaning, but not limited to: code, software, hardware, design, space and social solidarities. + +The second assumption is the recognition of the importance to connect the dots between the seemingly immaterial digital age and its material impact on the social, the labour, the environment, etc. For example: + * the extraction of resources such as rare minerals and metals, such as coltan, gold, copper, etc. to build our digital devices, + * the exploitative nature of labour (online communities as commodities, data mining by data empires, poor labour conditions in factories designing devices, etc.) + * the new digital spirit of capitalism that lies behind highly controlled and secretive infrastructures (algorithmic governmentality, closed-source design of devices, mass surveillance); + +== Background/ The origin of the idea == +For many years now, hackers have been involved in the development of infrastructures (often software) and have more recently started to develop "freer" hardware (such as 3D printers, fairphones, fair computers, mesh-networks, etc.). Some of these projects have embodied activist resistance stances while others have rather turned into commercial, lucrative endeavours, been recuperated by capitalism or have become part of a “hobbying” ethos. With the emergence of a politicised feminist hacker/hacking movement, which is building feminist servers, feminist hackerspaces, feminist hacker convergences, etc. it appears essential to reflect on practices and theoritical frameworks that guide certain practices. Some of the questions that we would like to address include, but are not limited to: + + * To which extent autonomous infrastructures enable forms of resistance and/or separation from capitalist, patriarchal and racist system of values? + * How do autonomous infrastructures support/empower the self-valorisation of those who take part in such endeavours? + * What kind of contradictions emerge from the creation of autonomous infrastructure? + * What can we learn from case studies of feminist hacker and hacking practices ? + * Are autonomous infrastructure the way forward? + +We hope you can join us in this first guided dialogue, which will help us all better understand and conceptualise movements and practices that are starting to build from the ground up. We invite you to come prepared with a 5-10 min case study example, critical position, or any other kind of constructive intervention. +
