so the next target is the party must die by Marie thank you here is a provider of
security experts raise your hand if your program our security expert great thanks
I'm not a programmer I'm not a security expert to be honest I barely understand
how these things work I'm thankful for your work for the work you do
but I am going to talk not going to talk about it today I'm a journalist and
activist I have mostly in being mostly been working with people working
communication are in art for a really long time I thought but your words
you're way off
acting your tolls were on mine I thought that what you are doing is too
complicated for me it actually is what you do it's a really complicated even if
it is not impossible to understand why you guys decide being really good at
doing you're really important work a really bad at something else you are bad
at communicating you are bad at sharing the amazing tools to create with people
who don't identify as being experts in what you do it's a shame you're so bad
if you should leave the hackerspace are your place for a while and notice how
much is needed I was there and how hard it is to use for normal people I am NOT
a programmer it doesn't mean that I'm not a hackerspace nerd I know how easy
it is to stay there and I definitely belong to these people who barely see
the sunlight because they prefer to spend their time among other nerds with
some beloved club matter and a bunch of laptops I know it's convenient I know
it's easier but it's wrong we need you out there
R and I have been years if you would leave the hackerspace and by this I
don't only need the hackerspace I mean the nerd seen in general you will notice
something there are many people out there who could help that many people
are there who want to help you guys alright already doing great work at
spreading what you create their activists communications specialist
journalists and artists who are willing to work with you i think you should give
it a try
known as revelations helped raise awareness about civilians what he did is
amazing but it's not enough it is our job to take over now we need to work
together to bring encryption to as many people as possible what you do is great
but it's not enough we need your tools and we need people to bring them to the
general public so who here as a journalist and artists are working
communication in any way great has already worked on privacy topics
I think that you should try have a chance for some programmer afterwards we
should share your ideas with them lately
I have been thinking a lot about how to communicate as a journalist I want to
help making everyone aware of what surveillance means of how it works until
as a journalist I want to fight for the rights to have a free press as a teacher
I tried to find IDs to explain tolls in a way that everyone would understand and
as an activist I tried to change things as a journalist teacher and activist I'm
also wondering why we aren't better changing them I hope we agreed that were
in a position where more than ever we need to help changing things and we need
to accept any help we can get even more of this help is the kind of help that
will enable us to spread our knowledge our tools in any possible way
crypto party is a decentralized global initiative to introduce basic tools for
protecting privacy anonymity and overall security on the Internet to the general
public the idea was conceived in the wake of the Australian cyber criminal
legislation Amendment Bill 2011 National Mall and the reasoning is that lost like
this are without substance when everybody and Crips their communication
ripped apart here are needed crypto parties are neither come out or
political alliance and free and open to attend for everyone as long as they live
the guiding principles that two major principles the first one is be excellent
to each other no harassment policy and the second one is doing things if you
have a good idea just go for it
so basically to workshop which aunt or an OTR the Trinity always secure browser
plugins on Firefox fine and fine and hard disk encryption password security
managers with sometimes to install Linux if people want it we teach stealth which
is a live system or even experimental software like if people really wanna go
far
running a crypto party is amazing in a few hours are able to empower people by
providing them tools that they never thought they would be able to use some
help them to get back to privacy they didn't have the they didn't think they
had the right to interpret the party's fun it is meeting people learning
teaching each other in a relaxed and respectful way organized trip to a party
and I love it but the party is not the solution not everyone comes to a crypto
party not everyone can do so and not everyone wants to do so and even if
everyone did we would need such we would need so many times so much time so many
people to t-shirt so many resources that would be impossible to teach everyone
from the party is a tiny bandage on a giant warmed we are doing our best bet
for not naive crypto party will not save us as a society from a surveillance the
program on a technical level and I know there are other many many other levels
like political social level is that the tools that provide good end-to-end
encryption are too complicated
whoever is an expert in computer security will need to go through a
really long complicated process to understand the tools I muster they use
and sorry again their rights to a basic level of privacy
this is something we can't expect everyone to do or even to be willing to
do I am NOT saying
everything is bad I have much respect for everyone who provides as tools but
most of them are unfortunately not accessible to everyone
a good example of how things should be done is signal from open with four
systems they manage provided to a friend cryptic messages and calls on
smartphones in this case iphone that I easy-to-install understand I use this is
the way it should be conceived in the future but in most cases this is what
beginners have to deal with I love OTR but this website want help spreading it
if I don't know TR and I if I don't really know a lot about computers this
will help me first
here we can see an attempt to explain how it works it say that there are four
a really important point encryption authentication denied the ability that
perfect forward secrecy I guess pretty much from these expressions on the
website could understand the true first points but then just forget about it
digital signatures that are checkable by a third party is not something everyone
can understand same for private keys if you have no idea what encryption you
won't understand that let someone just recommended to me and I won't try to
understand it I'll just try to download it from the website and/or Donald I can
see this year most people use pidgin rADM when they want to use OTR there is
no mention of a dream for Mac on this page and see any instructions on
downloading pigeon on Linux as well there's only windows and if you're a
Windows or Linux users are once you're done with the installation the troops
struggle continues you need to find out by yourself that you should manually
activate the auteur plugin
a really long list of plugins only then you'll be able to generate a key if you
understand what that means and start once more manually
ninety our conversation by clicking on the words not try vote then you might be
safe except that pigeon keeps logs by default which means that your end-to-end
encrypted conversations with perfect forward secrecy will stupidly be
recorded on your device
this is everything but privacy by design to go back to the starting point
OTR web side not so long ago I had a nice surprise and your website authority
are so I thought yeah good job this looks much more modern so there is
actually some basic information on this website if you scroll down
also there is this link the first one here it says get to know the Altera
protocol and when you click on it
you come back they're back to the old city paid user pain level very high and
I don't even talk about pgp when I'm talking about this so
these these might be details to you every single problem I'm unmentioned is
more than a detail if you're new to these things and it can be change know
the tools to I used to criticize a lot for this kind of things the store I
tried to install tour for the first time in 2010 because I read something about
it on the internet I was really curious you tell I didn't understand anything
there was no documentation and I gave up and decided that peace will definitely
need to complete that catered for me the next time I came back to encryption was
2013 officers known that he had a good surprise star improve its communication
so this has been released a few months ago if they made a few of these flights
these lines are also they are great tools for teaching tar and they're also
great because they show something really important about are they show torah
understood that they can be better at communicating at a critical part we try
to come up with solutions to explain tools we make videos tutorials we invent
stories and build our own to your door your treat yourself to try to make him
friction as accessible as possible on the to show you this example this has
been made by a guy who joined crypto partly I'll say six weeks ago he didn't
know how to encrypt how to encrypt anything he has a MacBook he had done
nothing with computers I think two days ago you sent me this picture as he said
I learned how to encrypt email and child and/or entities tour and I wanted to
give something back to her to a party and he made these pgp boxes so they're
basically explain the concept of public here privately year here there is some
encrypted text fingerprint and I D short I D but there is this key to open the
box found a way to explain in his
own really simple way what he had learned in the last weeks but this has
been a solution we have to come up with
because we have no choice as long as there will be needed we will keep doing
what we do
teaching encryption to everyone wants to learn it because everyone has the right
to privacy privacy has a basic human right but even if we love what we do
we're still hoping that soon we won't be needed anymore
ripped apart he must die and we need you to help us to be a trip to a party we
ask you programmers to work with us to work with people who are on the ground
who are to work with people are teaching and explaining your tools to work with
you X people to work with communication people to work with whether we could
help to share the tools to make don't worry about us will find something else
to do I was really not so far yet would like to invite you at a party tomorrow
if you want and if you want to organize your own cryptic party if you have
questions about how to teach encryption will have a session on Sunday as well to
end this talk of like to share something with you it is the video we made to
introduce crypto party one of the several tools we build to help to share
some concepts behind the idea of surveillance and the fact lots of people
still think they have nothing to hide
see this moment we have to use technology to open up our democracy let
me ask a simple question does it concern you that the government is not doing
anything wrong and that nothing to hide and they're not share it with your
Facebook password which a bank account number and say last night on Google I
don't like this interview I don't think there's so much she is also the case
that they want to have a world where everyone has privacy and dusty
confidentiality and integrity in their daily life without having to ask for too
big it from a master because it is the case that when you ask someone for those
things they may not grant them and then you free
conspiracy routinely intercept American citizens emails know the intercept
Americans cell phone conversations no Google searches no text messages no I'm
was signed orders no bank records no general clapper hundreds of millions of
Americans no sir it does not not wittingly
intelligence community in general is focused on getting intelligence wherever
by any means possible that he believes on the grounds of sorts
self-certification that they serve a mission which was
the communications about it in just some point it collects them in that system
that filters
measures in its stores though for periods of time simply because that's
the easiest most efficient and most valuable way to cheat
documented as a contender in that Infiniti IPL and then they can use this
system every decision every and attacks on that basis to sort of the rides
suspicion from an innocent life
anyone in the context of wrongdoing
they don't call it a little bit but what the NSA is doing not just domestically
but globally is created the USA government two years he was responsible
for espionage QSR citizens he left the service fee to change the rules of
engagement
nothing in the network that uses so consumed about their day I did find out
what they're doing with my dad so I make sure I read in their whatever whatever I
the same time I see them so that when they collected they know what I'm
thinking of you should not do you have something
the government controls us to what can people do first they can declare
themselves to be free and secondly they can declare it by using strong
encryption when they use telephones by talking to journalists about the things
that these steps to defund organizations that fundamentally violate the group
says that reinterpret the g10 privacy laws that are criminals quick
what you have internet just the most effective before you i think i
understand who controls the internet controls the dog and who controls
controls
we should be able to accomplish this with cryptography encryption we should
have an epidemic of surveillance and then we need to practice harm reduction
strategies with cultural norms
