[liberationtech] Circumvention Tools Hackfest in NYC before HOPE

[Ray C. Short]

The Information Security Coalition has partnered with the Open Internet
Tools Project, FreedomBox, and the Internet Society/New York to host a
circumvention tools "hackfest" in New York City right before the HOPE Number
Nine Conference <http://www.hopenumbernine.net/>  in July.  We will have
four days to plan, code, share, and learn!  If you want to hack on
anti-censorship or anti-surveillance tools, bring your project, bring your
skills, and bring your friends.  This event will focus on writing code and
solving design problems.  We won't have any long presentations (there will
be enough of those at HOPE), though we will have lightning talks and give
away a few door prizes.

 

WHERE: Columbia Law School, Jerome Greene Hall, 116th Street and Amsterdam
Avenue, New York City

WHEN: July 9 - 12, 10am-5pm

WHO: Privacy and free communication hackers

 

Please RSVP to kaurin at openitp.org and tell us what you plan to work on, what
kind of projects and people you hope to meet, and which days you will join
us.  Feel free to also repost this invite or to link to it:
