== What on Earth is liberatory technology? == The best project candidates for this event are technologies and works that undercut, obviate, or help fight back against capitalism and/or the state. The other excellent but probably much less practicable category of projects is those that would be useful to people living in socialist societies. Some example project ideas: * Privacy and whistleblower technology, like Tor, Signal, and SecureDrop * Art and data projects like the Anti-Eviction Mapping Project and [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPKKQnijnsM Wealth Inequality in America] * Tools for non-technical left-aligned organizations like Anti Police-Terrorism Project, The Icarus Project, and Homobiles * Hardware projects like the pocket Tor proxy, the Off Pocket, and signal jamming devices * Educational art projects like [https://criticalengineering.org/projects/men-in-grey/ Men in Grey] * Distributed systems supporting direct democracy, like [https://www.newschallenge.org/challenge/elections/entries/secure-polling-system-is-a-real-time-accurate-and-transparent-system-for-empowering-citizen-driven-anonymous-participatory-polling-with-an-engaging-and-rewarding-experience-for-voters# Secure Polling System] * Other visionary future shit? Socialist cryptocurrency? Mesh networks and other free internet projects? Tools for direct democracy? A fully distributed social network? There's a ton of possibilities. Spend some time brainstorming other ideas before the event if you can. We'll spend some of Friday afternoon talking about those ideas and forming teams around the ones people seem to like.
