Techno-Activism Third Mondays (TA3M)[1] is an informal monthly meetup designed to connect technoactivists, hacktivists and people like you who
are interested in circumvention, anti-censorship and anti-surveillance tech.
TA3M happens already in New York, San Francisco and Berlin. As of this month Amsterdam joins the list!
There will be talks, a workshop on secure mobile communication and an open mic for you to present your projects or ideas.
Speakers:
- Simone Halink of Bits of Freedom (Dutch digital rights organization)[2]
- Nathan Freitas of the Guardian Project (The Guardian Project creates secure mobile apps)[3]
We invite a diverse crowd from different communities developing or using technology for change. We hope TA3M Amsterdam will become a useful platform for sharing knowledge, inspiration and get to know new people and projects. The TA3M in Amsterdam is organized by Greenhost[4] who, among other stuff, develops RePress[5], Project Gulliver[6] and SSHARK[7]. This first edition is kindly hosted at the Bits of Freedom space.
Join us and bring your friends!
