Hi all, I'm pasting EFF's outreach email below, but let me add: PLEASE COME! The rally will be awesome, with puppets and projections. And the hearing will also be pretty amazing. Expect to hear from leading experts in the debate. Speakers include: Former FCC Commissioner Michael Copps; Amy Sonnie, Outreach Director of the Oakland Public Library; Jay Nath, Chief Innovation Officer for the City of San Francisco; Corynne McSherry, Director of Intellectual Property at the Electronic Frontier Foundation; and Malkia Cyril, Executive Director of the Center for Media Justice; Dane Jaspers of Sonic.net; Tim Pozar of Fandor, Chris Witteman of the CPUC; with testimony from groups like Greenlining, Dave Steer from Mozilla, Tracy Rosenberg of Media Alliance, amongst others. We'll start at 5:30 with a rally outside City Hall and at 7 the event at City Hall begins. Please share on social media and if a any representatives from Noisebridge or Sudo want to speak at the rally, please be in touch. I also encourage everyone to testify at the hearing. 60 seconds for each person who provides testimony. Best, April Electronic Frontier Foundation Dear Friend of Digital Freedom, You are invited to join EFF next Thursday, November 20, for a free public event on the quickly unfolding national debate on net neutrality <https://www.eff.org/issues/net-neutrality>, to be hosted at San Francisco City Hall. The event <http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/933163> is "Bay Area Speaks: A People's Hearing on the Future of the Internet," where you are invited to testify at City Hall about why net neutrality matters to Bay Area communities. Attendees will also receive an update from the lawyers, policy analysts, and activists who have been working on the front lines to make sure the FCC takes the right path forward.

Re: [sudo-discuss] very simple CNC plotter

Hol do you really think it's a good idea to hand our evil robot a loaded nail gun? We should see how it behaves with a full-size router first...

by Danny O'Brien

This month, Kim Zetter, author of "Countdown to Zero Day: Stuxnet and the Launch of the World's First Digital Weapon," will be here to give the inside history of the virus aimed at Iran's nuclear development program: what it illustrates about government offensive capabilities in malware, and what we might expect in the future. We'll also talk about the latest news, including EFF's Secure Messaging Scorecard, and aerial mobile phone surveillance. Plus special guests, networking, and a chance to chat about your own activism projects or find about others going on in your city. TA3M SF is at 6PM at EFF HQ, 815 Eddy St, San Francisco. Call x200 to be let into the building. Techno-Activism Third Mondays (TA3M) are informal meetups designed to connect software creators and activists who are interested in censorship, surveillance, and open technology. Currently, TA3Ms are held in fifteen cities throughout the world, and growing. As the name implies, it is held on the third Monday of each month.

sudoroom in oaklandmakers db

by Ben Burke

I added sudo room here: http://oaklandmakers.activatehub.org/organizations <http://oaklandmakers.activatehub.org/organizations> resulting in this: http://oaklandmakers.activatehub.org/organizations/363 I added our location here: http://oaklandmakers.activatehub.org/venues <http://oaklandmakers.activatehub.org/venues> resulting in this: http://oaklandmakers.activatehub.org/venues/2082 <http://oaklandmakers.activatehub.org/venues/2082> I marked the old sudo room location as “closed" and it has subsequently been deleted. I think it was there because CCL’s events in the old space automatically created a record of the old space. CCL is listed on oaklandmakers and their events on meetup.com <http://meetup.com/> automatically get mirrored there. If our sudoroom.org calendar has iCalendar or hCalendar support, their site can show our events, which would be cool.

It's a level playing field -- whether you want to promote your music, apply for a job, play a game or start a business. But that could soon change. The web as we know it today is founded on the principle of *'Net Neutrality*:' The idea that "content" should be given the same priority no matter who it's coming from and who it's going to. Policymakers in the U.S. are currently considering whether or not to adopt rules that protect Net Neutrality. Millions of people asked them to. Even President Obama ( http://www.whitehouse.gov/net-neutrality). *Come learn more about your digital rights and what Net Neutrality means for you – and actions you can take!* ** Speakers ** We will have *speakers from really cool organizations* who can talk about these issues and their impact. *MALKIA CYRIL* is founder and director of the Media Action Grassroots Network (MAG-Net) at the Center for Media Justice. For more than a decade MAG-Net's 175 member groups have worked together to expand media access and rights for marginalized communities. http://mag-net.org/ <https://oaklegacymail.oaklandnet.com/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=http://mag-n…> *JEREMY GILLULA* is a staff technologist at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, where he focuses on privacy and civil liberties issues arising from new and existing technologies. https://www.eff.org/ ** Privacy Workshop ** *Bring your devices, too,* and learn about your privacy options in a hands-on workshop with volunteers from Sudo Room <https://sudoroom.org/>. ** Maker Party ** Or join us for a maker party where we will craft buttons, posters or zines inspired by this conversation.
