Event

CryptoParty will be in the foyer, following open lunch at the Internet Archive. Bring your laptop and a USB drive (to be formatted). Ryan Taylor will be leading open discussions and workshops covering the importance and implementation of Free Software, Tails, Tor, PGP, Off-The-Record messaging and other anonymity, privacy, and security tools.

Users of all ages, skill levels and backgrounds are welcome to attend and participate. Learn how to create and use a Tails USB boot drive, then we’ll go over the features and vulnerabilities that exist in contemporary encryption/anonymity software to make yourself and your data more difficult to track and attack.

Experienced attendees are encouraged to lend their knowledge in the discussions and workshops. Let’s collaborate!

Above all else, we come to share and learn the latest accurate information to help everybody be more safe in their digital existence.

Some food and drinks will be provided by Ryan. Feel free to bring more to share! (Did someone say birthday cake?)

This event will be livestreamed (with respect for the privacy concerns of all attendees): https://youtu.be/FPMAVwdBLok

About OccupyOakland.org

This website was created in the fall of 2011. Most of it is now moribund, but the Occupy Oakland Calendar, which lists activist events in the East Bay (and occasionally elsewhere) is still maintained, the Search facility works to find earlier posts and keep OO’s history alive, and articles are occasionally still posted to the front page.

The Occupy Oakland General Assembly met in-person weekly (with a rare skip) since October 10th, 2011 up until the pandemic, at which point we went to bi-weekly Zoom meetings. We do checkins, go over the activist events of the past meeting interval, and have general discussions on politics and revolution.

For many years, until the pandemic, we put on a Feed the People event monthly at Oscar Grant Plaza, where all were welcome to come and partake of a freshly cooked, savory meal, before our GA.

If you would like to participate while the pandemic is still amidst, send an email to occupyoakland-request@lists.riseup.net. Check the calendar or this text to see if we have resumed in-person meetings.
