Technology has so fundamentally changed our society that any strategy for social change must be altered to address its power over us. But it also gives us the potential to develop and realize the kind of society we all want and to do that within our lifetimes. Information technology is the most powerful tool for change we have.

Since 2017, 25 local convergences have brought together over 1,500 activists from the U.S. to talk about the intersection between technology and revolution. The results of this two-year project can be viewed in the program that emerged from those sessions summarized in the video linked below.

techandrev.org

We want to continue that process in a Tech and Rev session at this conference with our convergence here adding to and editing the program as it now stands.

Panel speakers are:

  • Alfredo Lopez, May First Movement Technology
  • Ellie Ade Kur, Maggie's
  • Lorraine Chuen, IntersectTO
  • Victoria Barnett, Design Justice Network

Mesh networks are not just experimental network architectures โ€” they are actively being used to connect devices in a decentralized way. This video explains how mesh networks work, and how the concept can be employed more broadly.

This video project was researched and created by the Berkman Center's class of 2012 Summer Interns.

The internet today is too centralized. It's controlled by a few companies who don't give a damn about you or your community. Their abuses of power are many. But it doesn't have to be this way.

Running a personal server for you and your friends or family can be one way to regain agency within an otherwise dehumanizing system. Such servers can federate together to create community oases within the information desert. Growing and connecting in a decentralized way, rather than building a single monolithic platform for the next Silicon Valley tyrant to monopolize.

LibreServer is a small server system which enables you to run your own internet services independently. It includes all of the things you'd expect such as email, chat, VoIP, wikis, blogs, social networks, and more. You can run LibreServer on an old laptop or single board computer. You can also run it on an onion address.

Reclaim the internet, one server at a time.
