Hi Tor friends and future friends, I hope this finds you well. With apologies for vacation-induced late notice, we are hosting a free virtual learning session this Tuesday 17th on "Online Anonymity, privacy, the Tor Browser and more" Details are here: https://aspirationtech.org/blog/learningsessionsonanonymitydigitalidentity It's taking place at 2pm California US PT time. We would welcome anyone interested to join. Disclaimers, confessions and apologies below :^) Big big thanks to Alison and Gus for sharing their latest Tor slides with us, we'll be incorporating a number of those. And if anyone wants to see the "privacy/anonymity" material beforehand and share tough love to help us make it better, hit me up off-list and I'm happy to share the pad where we have drafted the slides. Few comments/respectful apologies: * Sorry it's not offered at a Europe-, Africa- or Asia-friendly time, this is primarily for our California US network, but I wanted to make sure you all know about it. We are happy to offer these at any time of day if there is interest. * Also sorry we are doing it on the corporate Zoom platform, we just have not found a free/open live video platform that meets our reliability needs. I welcome you to educate me off-list on platforms you think might be worth exploring. Too many jit.si servers have broken our hearts too many times, especially as participant counts grow. * That also means that we don't have an in-Tor-browser option, again happy to discuss how we might offer Tor-browser-friendly online learning moving forward. * BUT we'll be recording the session and making it available in some hopefully-friendly formats (.ogg I believe) once things are done. * AND for anyone with ability and willingness to dial a US toll-free number, there is that option for audio-only. BYOBP (Bring Your Own Burner Phone ;^) * Final apology with custom support offer! You don't have to use the annoying corporate registration system to join, just hit me up off list and I can share whatever details you need. OK, that's a lot of disclaimers, hope some of you can join, and I look forward to feedback from any who have time to offer the same before, during and after. peace, gunner -- Allen Gunn Executive Director, Aspiration www.aspirationtech.org Aspiration: "Better Tools for a Better World" Read our Manifesto: https://aspirationtech.org/publications/manifesto Twitter: www.twitter.com/aspirationtech
