Månedens tema er: «Why Open Source is the key for Privacy and Digital
Sovereignty» med Frank Karlitschek.

Foredraget vil foregå på engelsk. Kort om presentasjonen:

The security and the personal data on the internet are under attack
by hackers and international espionage programs. The question who
controls what data and application becomes more important every day.
And governments care more and more about Digital Sovereignty and how
this effects to future of countries.

The GDPR was suppose to give people more control over their data.
But now that the European Court of Justice declared the US CloudAct
incompatible with the GDPR the questions rises how data should be
stored and processed in the future.

The Nextcloud community is build an open source and fully federated
and distributed network for files and communication. Everyone can
run an Nextcloud server at home or somewhere on the internet and
collaborate and share with everyone else. Nextcloud can be used to
provide file access, syncing, sharing, calendar, contacts, video
calling, music and video streaming in a distributed way.

This talk will cover the current problems with surveillance and
espionage and strategies on how to fix this problem. It will also
discuss the current and upcoming federation features of Nextcloud
and how to become part of the community.

Dette er noe du må få med deg på møte eller på videooverføring av
foredragene.
