Booteille - Framasoft - Livestream 2025-05-27

Welcome Fedi Friends to the episode 20 of Fireside Fedi! I’m your host ozoned. Fireside Fedi is a show about folks within the Fediverse. If you’re seeing this, you are a part of the Fediverse. With me today is Booteille! Booteille was a volunteer to Framasoft for 3 years, then became a co-president, a volunteer position as well, and then got hired by Framasoft and stepped down from his volunteer position . Booteille seems to wear many different hats around Framasoft. From interviews, conventions, building donation campaigns, to sysadmin tasks, website tweaks, etc. Booteille describes their goal with Framasoft is “to help as much as I can the organisation in our goals: raising awareness about digital issues and helping to build a society fitting our values.” I’m very excited to finally have this show as we’ve had to reschedule numerous times. Schedule conflicts, then I was sick for weeks, and booteille is finally getting over being sick as well. https://framasoft.org Donation Link - https://support.framasoft.org Framasoft Mastodon - https://framapiaf.org/@Framasoft https://numerethique.fr/ https://blog.dreads-unlock.fr/ Mastodon - https://framapiaf.org/@booteille https://degooglisons-internet.org/en/ https://support.joinpeertube.org/en/

Cory Doctorow - Livestream 2025-05-13

Welcome Fedi Friends to episode 16 of Fireside Fedi! I’m your host ozoned. Fireside Fedi is a show about folks within the Fediverse. If you’re seeing this, you are a part of the Fediverse. With me today is Cory Doctorow! You might know Cory from such classics as the term “enshittification” that he coined during one of his many presentations. But besides having catch terms that even your grandparents can agree with about today’s big tech platforms, Cory is also a science fiction author, activist and journalist. He’s had a few books that us on the open social web might enjoy such as “How to Destroy Surveillance Capitalism” and “The Internet Con : How to Seize the Means of Computation”. Cory works for the Electronic Frontier Foundation, is a MIT Media Lab Research Affiliate, a visiting professor for numerous colleges. Cory holds and multiple honorary Doctorates. And might I add, I consider Cory to be one of the most charismatic and vocal advocates for digital privacy rights and I am claiming he is now King of the nerds. And there’s just so much more to say about Cory, but I recommend everyone just go look up his Wikipedia, because if I have to talk about all of his accomplishments we’ll run out of time. Cory thank you so much for joining me and I’m just blown away and honored to be able to speak to you. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cory_Doctorow https://craphound.com https://pluralistic.net/ https://mamot.fr/@pluralistic https://craphound.com/bio/ https://www.betterworldbooks.com/product/detail/how-to-destroy-surveillance-capitalism-9781736205907 https://www.betterworldbooks.com/product/detail/the-internet-con-how-to-seize-the-means-of-computation-9781804291245

In technology, that means we need to control our data, freely choose the software we use with our data and fairly negotiate the terms by which we interact with others, including which data is and isn’t shared. Not a fan of overlords, in politics and in technology. Very excited about the opportunities on the resurging open social web / the Fediverse. Also: Facts matter. Empathy, inclusion, opportunity.“ Johannes’ impressive current list of projects include Dazzle Labs, FediDevs, FediForum, FedTest and UBOS. As well as many other and previous projects. https://j12t.org/ https://fediforum.org/ https://dazzlelabs.net/ https://fedidevs.org/ https://feditest.org/ https://ubos.net/ BLOG: https://reb00ted.org/ Mastodon: @j12t@j12t.social Mother of All Demos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJDv-zdhzMY
