Sono poche ore in cui sono back from OHM2013 (http://ohm2013.org), forse il più vasto evento Hacker mondiale con oltre 3000 hacker da tutto il mondo (e una ampia rappresentanza della Italian Hackers' Embassy). Dopo una 5 giorni di fuoco con il Centro Hermes e una quantità sbalorditiva di attivisti digitali che hanno partecipato al Noisy Square (http://noisysquare.com), evento attivista nell'evento hacker, volevo condividere con voi il talk forse più coinvolgente, la chiamata alle armi di Eleanor Saitta, direttore tecnico dell'International Modern Media Institute Islandese, Principal Security Engineer presso l'Open Internet Tools project. <https://noisysquare.com/ethics-and-power-in-the-long-war-eleanor-saitta-dyma...> If you think that people are fundamentally good, then your life is in some case much simpler. Because you don’t have to worry about people being tainted by the reality of things. You can simply assume: if you build all these structures that let people coordinate and collaborate, it will probably work out OK. (...) Security people, hackers. We also have a problem: we have massive fucking egos and they are getting in the way. I don’t care about your egos. My friend Siena, who is trying to keep her seven year old daughter from getting the shit beaten out of her by Moroccan riot cops does not care about your egos. When I don’t have any tools because I get told “Oh yeah! GPG is totally something that you can totally teach in the field.” Fuck you! (...) But we cannot build a free world, on an unfree Internet. You cannot build functionally decentralized Internet-centric democratic structures on an unfree Internet. It is like the CIA trying to build a free democracy on a legacy of treachery and murder. It just doesn’t work. So yeah, let’s fight. Leggetelo e/o ascoltatelo. Subito. :) <https://noisysquare.com/ethics-and-power-in-the-long-war-eleanor-saitta-dyma...> MgpF -- Matteo G.P.
