Hi Sodoers! “Hacktivism is a form of political activism, also referred to as being part of cyberactivism. It is a hybrid expression linking both hacking and activism, whereby hacktivists make use of the internet ... Political hackers are thereby trying to achieve a certain political and societal change, shift, statement, or behaviour by using technical mechanisms against e.g., political parties, governments, organisations, etc. by using this technological tools." There is a young lady named Leonie who lives in Belfast and is working on her Master's Thesis at Queen's University there who would like to talk to some hacktivists to help her understand what hacktivists are, what we do, and how we see ourselves versus how people outside our group see us. This is good research IMO because it helps break down the images of "hacktivism" as being about destruction of websites and DDoS attacks -- concepts that were part of her initial working definition of "hacktivist" when she applied for her human subjects permit a year ago. When I think of "Hacktivism" I think of many people, but I ESPECIALLY think of sudoroom. You guys are super activists in all the ways that I hold dear, so I hope that some of you will reach out to Leonie and take part in her research. You can reach her at Leonie Tanczer <ltanczer01(a)qub.ac.uk>. If you wish to send her encrypted email, her public key is posted on http://pgp.mit.eduand the fingerprint that I have for her in my own keychain is 3AA3 3037 6DF0 A649 63BC FB22 3417 15C5 FF72 36C2 - Lisha PS I miss you guys! -- http://www.alwayssababa.com/

NSA: All your calls belong to us

by Eddan Katz

The NSA has obtained an FISC order to have Verizon turn over phone data records on all customers until July 19th. Here's the court order: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/interactive/2013/jun/06/verizon-telephone-d… The gist of it from EFF Deeplinks post (https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2013/06/confirmed-nsa-spying-millions-america…) In a report by Glenn Greenwald, the paper published an order from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (or FISC) that directs Verizon to provide “on an ongoing daily basis” all call records for any call “wholly within the United States, including local telephone calls” and any call made “between the United States and abroad.” In plain language: the order gave the NSA a record of everyVerizon customer’s call history -- every call made, the location of the phone, the time of the call, the duration of the call, and other “identifying information” for the phone and call -- from April 25, 2013 (the date the order was issued) to July 19, 2013. The order does not require content or the name of any subscriber and is issued under 50 USC sec.1861, also known as section 215 of the Patriot Act.

Meeting Tonight at 7PM: Add to Agenda

by Marina Kukso

Hi everyone, Trying another refinement of the agenda that is hopefully clearer than last time (for those who were there last time, there was confusion about discussion vs action items, so I've separated it out a bit. I've also brought forward items from last week, so if they are resolved, let's delete them. Please feel edit, remove, and add things!). Agenda is here: https://pad.riseup.net/p/sudoroommeeting I am not at the space right now, so can't coordinate dinner, but there should be dinner stuffs in the fridge! - Marina

Outreach Media

by Ryan

Hey all, Curly here. I remember there being a brief discussion around outreach scripts and things some weeks back, but dunno where it went. I want to re-open the topic. With logo work coming to a close (see presentation today, and vote!) I am ready to start working on an outreach piece again. Specifically, I want to compose something that speaks to the big vision for the group, and hopefully even think of how to storyboard that in print or film media. I don't think we can ever talk about our mission too much, since it's such an exquisite thing. I got inspired by this short film <http://vimeo.com/66839079> about a Detroit hackerspace. It's not a crowdfunding thing, but it could be. Most importantly, it brushes the dust off our image of Detroit's greatness, and reconnects its precarious future to its mighty emergence as a city of makers. I think we can do this as well for Oakland, especially with a good camera...

As time passed Stacy went his own way, focusing more on looping and experimental cello radness, while Lowe stayed true to the acoustic roots music feel. Over the years, “the flock” as Joshua calls it, has matured into a well-seasoned and amazingly talented group of musicians (see below). Regardless of the lineup on any given night, Joshua Lowe and The Juncos’ sound is steeped in American roots music. www.joshualowemusic.com<http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.joshualowemusic.com&h=lAQE…> https://www.facebook.com/pages/Joshua-Lowe-and-The-Juncos/134637685384 * _______________________________________________ spaghettinight mailing list spaghettinight(a)tentacle.net Rabbit administers this list; email them at rabbitface(a)gmail.com if you have questions To unsubscribe send an email to spaghettinight-leave(a)tentacle.net https://tentacle.net/mailman/listinfo/spaghettinight

Doing photography, does anyone want to be a model for me?

by rusty lindgren

Hey everyone, Doing some art, and I need models. Would be a lot of fun. I would also provide some food. I know some people pay models for this kind of work, but this isn't something I want to sell... It's just an experiment. Let me know if you're interested. -- Cheers, Rusty **

Re: [sudo-discuss] Lockers: question: how many & how big?

by mattsenate＠gmail.com

I cleaned out several cubbies, print a label from http://track.space.local when you're in the space and use one. // Matt ----- Reply message ----- From: "Andrew" <andrew(a)roshambomedia.com> To: "Georgio510" <georgio510(a)sbcglobal.net> Cc: "sudo-discuss" <sudo-discuss(a)lists.sudoroom.org> Subject: [sudo-discuss] Lockers: question: how many & how big? Date: Tue, Jun 4, 2013 8:06 AM Bolt cutters can bypass most pad locks. Schools keep them around for this reason. Security is part technical and part human. Really they don't even entirely need locks (like the member shelves at Noisebridge) locks just make it obvious that the stuff is off limits. As far as where to put them. Maybe clear out under the enlarger, or clear out the stuff along the wall opposite the shelves in the closet. there are a few abandoned projects, and big, unusable items that we could get rid off. -- -------Andrew LoweCell: 831-332-2507http://roshambomedia.com
