Dear friends!<br>
<br>
DO YOU WANT TO FEEL MORE IN CONTROL OF
YOUR ONLINE COMMUNICATIONS? COME TO THE APC TACTICAL TECH
DISCO-TECH!
<p>The security of digital networks and information is becoming
increasingly important to all internet users due to the increase
in incidences of governments and corporations spying on netizens
and human rights defenders. Journalists, democracy activists,
women human rights defenders and sexual rights activists, who
use ICTs to report on, and campaign against, human rights abuses
face surveillance, censorship, information security
vulnerabilities, and information security compromises that can
be life threatening.<a href="#141c4baee9b7920a_sdfootnote1sym" name="141c4baee9b7920a_sdfootnote1anc"><sup>1</sup></a></p>
<p>To shed light on the practical steps that members of civil
society can take to protect themselves and their activism, APC
and Tactical Tech are hosting a peer-learning session on the
night before the global IGF in Bali, 21 October 2013.</p>
<p>We're calling it “the Disco-tech” because the format of the
event will be very unique. Participants can learn about
technological solutions in an inspiring and relaxed yet
high-energy atmosphere.</p>
<p>Experts and activists will be talking about tools and
experiences with online surveillance, safety, the right to
privacy and anonymity. Participants will have the opportunity to
set up stations to share technological tools, information or
discuss specific issues. A “key signing party” and an
introduction to encryption will be held in parallel.</p>
