Proxy Cafe – Smash the firewall: digital defense for the misfits

By: börek - April 3rd, 2024  Filed under: Workshop

Wednesday 24 April 2024 from 18:00 to 22:00, Proxy Cafe – Smash the firewall: digital defense for the misfits

Do you sense that whisper of paranoia lingering in the air?
Well, we’ve got your back. We’re going to share some hard-earned lessons about staying safe and secure in the digital world – aimed at people in squats and involved in radical movements.
We won’t be diving deep into technical details, but rather covering all the essentials: like passwords, data security, browsing habits, smartphone usage, and metadata. Most importantly, we’ll discuss what it means to stay anonymous and understand potential threats models.
The content is based on a presentation that’s been touring squats and radical spaces in Italy, put together by the folks at the _TO* hacklab.
You can check out the original slides here, in italian: https://facciamo.cisti.org/

Proxy Cafe, free software workshops. Discussing tech and politics, GNU/Linux, fixing computers and revive old laptops, free and opensource software workshops. Zapatista coffee. […Lees verder]

Benefit Voku for Greek Comrades legal costs

By: börek - April 3rd, 2024  Filed under: Benefiet, Volkseten/Voku

Monday 22 April 2024, Benefit Voku for Greek Comrades legal costs. Food served from 7pm, no reservation.

In April 2018 on the Greek island of Lesvos, a group of 200-300 fascists attacked a group of residents of the former Moria camp. The pogrom lasted all night, throughout the city centre of Mytilene. The police eventually evacuated the square but only after dozens were left injured, with Greek flags and fascist slogans plastered across the town. Before this, a group of comrades intervened to help those under attack and drive the fascists away. For this, they were arrested and then prosecuted on outrageous charges. Tonight’s benefit dinner goes towards supporting their ongoing legal costs. […Lees verder]

It’s not the first appearance from Yiannis at Joe’s Garage. In April 2022, Yiannis visited a concert organised by Aman Molli and jumped on the stage with his clarinet.

Monday 8 April 2024, Voku for Amsterdam BANGS Theatre and Performance Festival. Food served from 7pm, no reservation.

Politicians are selfish comedians constantly fooling us

But we the people are much better clowns !
Climb off the stage, flood the streets!
BANGS WILL TAKE OVER AMSTERDAM!

Amsterdam BANGS is a politically charged joyride taking place all over Amsterdam in September 15th-21st. Get ready for a BANGING theatre and performance festival, organised by anarchists, artists, and activists, to take over not just traditional venues, not just the squats, not just the streets, not just your local Albert Heijn, not just your ING help desk but even your own home. BANGS is non-hierarchically and self-organised, anyone can propose their show, workshop, or performance, so long as it’s non-commercial and BANGING. We wish for BANGS to invite new breath for political movements standing for alternative/radical social and ecological justice struggles (queer-trans-feminist, anarchist, squatting movement, anti-fascist, anti-colonial, anti-racist, anti-capitalist….), as well as opening up Amsterdam to any kind of (experimental and radical) performative arts, taking place freely and collaboratively all around the city. The city is ours! Put on your most flamboyant fashions, clown couture, and celebrate the spells of wicked witchcraft in this time of carnival!

BANG RATTLE SHAKE THE CITY ALL AROUND // BANG RATTLE SHAKE THE CITY WE’RE HERE TO MAKE A SOUND

Beware: Deviance At Play!

The VoKu will support the website we’re developing, as well as promotional materials. Come eat and get served by Bubble GUm gurl_boi and get another slice of hitband one hit wonders of the future The Crying Cyborgs, maybe moooore!
