[ES] Funcionamiento de una Red Anonimizadora: La red Tor
by Vasilis 16 Apr '18

16 Apr '18

Hola! Un artículo de Gunnar Wolf sobre Tor [1]: "Ha pasado medio año desde que nos encontramos en la última columna, en el número 55 de Software Gurú. En dicha columna abordé algunos argumentos importantes relativos al tipo de vigilancia al cual estamos sometidos, tanto por gobiernos como por empresas particulares. Dejé varias ideas inconclusas, apuntando a que retomaría el tema."

FLISOL 2018 Quito
by iapazmino＠riseup.net 12 Apr '18

12 Apr '18

Hola, This Friday and Saturday FLISOL 2018 will be happening in Quito. Here I'll run a workshop on installing ooni in your phone, a middle relay in your desktop and using a tor and a vpn in your desktop. I've got support on this from Vasilis and ilv. Gracias! This is the end for the tldr and English paragraph. El objetivo principal de este taller es mostrar como los ciudadanos pueden observar el las redes y detectar potenciales interferencias. Además la importancia de mantener estos datos para posterios estudio y análisis porque la temática general es la neutralidad de la red. Además pienso incluir a la auto-protección de la privacidad mediante redes anónimas (tor) y privadas. En qué servicio de VPN confían? Si tienen alguna sugerencia para el taller y si alguien va, ahí nos vemos. Iván

quick note: the BoF acronym
by George 11 Apr '18

11 Apr '18

I was under the (false) impression that "BoF" was a standard global term. My mistake. BoF refers to a "birds-of-a-feather" session which is typically a side meeting at a conference. It's often a feature at open-source conferences that allows attendees to informally meet in a separate room about a particular topic. One might have a large poster sign-up sheet for BoF organizers to write down a topic with a location and time. IMHO, BoF's are a great complement to more general Tor presentations at conferences. It allows us to address a particular topic or specific community at an event. As BoFs are usually smaller meetings with audiences actively interested in a particular topic, discussions can be more concrete and operational. BoFs are often just introduced briefly by the organizer. In our context, BoF ideas might be: * running a relay|bridge * organizing a Tor event in your city|university|village * how to run TB on Android etc... If you're going to be attending a conference, consider planning out a BoF on a Tor-related topic which you feel capable of running. It's not necessarily a high-stakes event like a presentation, which means the number of people who can/should organize a BoF doesn't have to be your typical conference presenter.

Greetings from Argentina, soon from Ecuador
by Rafael Bonifaz 09 Apr '18

09 Apr '18

Hi, I am Rafael from Ecuador currently living in Argentina. I would be back to Quito on June after living 2 and half years in Buenos Aires. I came here to study a master on Computer Security. As part of the masters I did a research about the Snowden Documents in Spanish.[1] Now I am working in my master thesis about "Privacy and Anonymity with Free Software". I have been using Tor and learning about it since 2012. In 2013 after the Snowden revelations we organized an event call "Minga por la Libertad Tecnológica" in Quito. There where some Tor developers and Orchid, the java implementation of Tor was released.[2] During my time in Buenos Aires I started to teaching about tools such as Tor, OTR, Ricochet, PGP and Tails. I have published the presentations that can help others with CC BY SA.[3] Those training sessions where organize together with some Free Software Cooperatives here in Buenos Aires. Now we are working in a project witch we plan to launch soon. It would consist of a website with information related to privacy and anonymity, and .onion forum for support and on-line training courses. The website with basic information and the onion forum should be ready for FLISOL 2018. Learning to protect your communication in digital environment isn't something easy. Too much things to learn and too little time to understund. So we think that if can install Tor Browser, bookmark the onion forum we could continue from there. I follow the tor-talk list since 2013, however I wasn't aware of this others mailing list. I also subscribe to community and training lists. However I find interesting to have a Global South mailing list so that is why I introduce my self in this mailing list first. I am close to my 40s and I don't to live in sourville world for the rest of my life. I don't that for my children either. I believe that Free Software with cryptography are really important for a free society. I think Tor is one of the most important projects. So I think I should get more involve with this project.
