Description
The Technology and Politics Camp is intended as a hands-on day of networking, brainstorming, and planning for organizations working at the intersection of politics and the Internet (or media in general). The idea came out of the Technology and Politics session at BarCampStanford.


The general goal is to create stronger and more coherent coalitions devoted to democratic technology, freedom, social justice, and sustainability.


Issues expected to be discussed include:


  • DOPA follow-up

  • 2006 mid-term elections follow-up

  • Use of telephony, Skype/VoIP especially, in the 06 and 08 election cycles

  • Net neutrality

  • Open spectrum

  • Tools for activism

  • Online deliberation

  • Digital divides

  • Community computing

  • Software patents and free software

  • Domestic wiretapping and privacy

  • Voting technology and security

Cost
Free.
