PARTY LIKE IT'S 1984!!1

We're having monthly cryptoparties from 2-5pm every Third Sunday at Sudo Room, a hackerspace in Oakland located at 2141 Broadway (two blocks from the 19th St Oakland BART!). The next one is this Sunday!

• Learn security techniques & software. • Understand why responsible security is important. • Meet with other proactive residents!

We'll have talks on why digital security matters, mobile phone security, GPG and encrypted email, OTR (secure chat), and SSL / perfect forward security.

Bring your laptop! Bring your phone!

All skill levels welcome, from novice to expert!

This hackerspace is awesome. 1 block from BART, lots of smart members (including many EFF folks) from a unique intersection of communities, attempting ambitiously to be horizontal, do-o-cratic and inclusive. Support this if you can!

I'll definitely be there.

Yeah, I'll be MC'ing and telling people how to be scared of things they didn't even know about. Come!

I love the flyer from the previous party: "party like it's 1984"

Last month's cryptopary had a really diverse, really excellent turnout. These will continue to happen every 3rd Sunday. Bring a friend, share the knowledge :)
