# Free Software Supporter
Issue 108, April 2017

Welcome to the Free Software Supporter, the Free Software Foundation's (FSF)
monthly news digest and action update -- being read by you and 143,027
other activists. That's 4,350 more than last month!

### #DialUp the Web's inventor for online security and rights

*From March 30th*

Since the beginning of the Web -- the age of dial-up Internet
connections -- the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) has kept the Web's
technical standards tuned in a careful balance that enables innovation
and respects users' rights. On April 13th, that may change. Unless we
can stop it, the W3C will welcome a new wave of user-hostile Digital
Restrictions Management (DRM) onto the Web, making it harder than ever
for us to be secure and free online. Join free software supporters
around the world in calling W3C Director Tim Berners-Lee now and
urging him not to endanger users by enshrining oppressive technology
in the basic standards of the Web.

### LibrePlanet 2017: Recapping the conference

#### LibrePlanet Day 2, DRM, contributing, and advice

*From March 26th*

The second day of LibrePlanet 2017 started with a talk by author,
blogger, editor, activist, and Internet freedom fighter Cory
Doctorow. Straight through to Sumana Harihareswara's closing keynote,
the day was full of conversations and presentations touching on a
broad range of topics across the free software movement.

* 
<https://www.fsf.org/blogs/community/libreplanet-day-2-drm-contributing-and-advice>

#### LibrePlanet Day 1, technology, politics, workshops, and winners

*From March 25th*

This year kicked off on Saturday, March 25th, with a keynote speech by
Kade Crockford, director of the Technology for Liberty Project at the
American Civil Liberties Union of Massachusetts. Throughout the day,
there were 24 talks, covering a wide range of topics relating to
software freedom and user freedom. At the end of the day, Richard
Stallman announced the winners of the 2016 Free Software Awards.

### SecureDrop and Alexandre Oliva are 2016 Free Software Awards winners 

*From March 25th*

We announced the winners of the 2016 Free Software Awards at a
ceremony held during the LibrePlanet 2017 conference at the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology. FSF President Richard

### The Licensing and Compliance Lab interviews Defense Digital Service about 
eMCM 

*From March 16th*

In this edition of our Licensing and Compliance Lab's series on free
software developers who choose GNU licenses for their works, we
interviewed the Defense Digital Service (DDS) about the release of
their first project, eMCM, on their recently launched free software
platform Code.mil. The DDS is a team of private sector tech experts
who serve as federal employees on "nerd tours of duty" at the Pentagon
to solve problems of impact within the Department of Defense (DoD).

###  Do GitHub's updated terms of service conflict with copyleft? 

*From March 14th*

GitHub's updated terms caused a great deal of concern, but while they
are confusing, they do not appear to be incompatible with
copyleft. The FSF, though, still recommends using other code hosting
sites.

* 
<https://www.fsf.org/blogs/licensing/do-githubs-updated-terms-of-service-conflict-with-copyleft>

### GNU Toolchain now accepting donations with the support of the FSF

*From March 9th*

The FSF is now accepting [donations to support the GNU
Toolchain](https://my.fsf.org/civicrm/contribute/transact?reset=1&id=57),
a collection of foundational freely licensed software development
tools including the [GNU C Compiler collection
(GCC)](https://gcc.gnu.org/), the [GNU C Library
(glibc)](https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/libc.html), and the [GNU
Debugger (GDB)](https://sourceware.org/gdb/). Many pieces of software
depend upon the GNU Toolchain, including the GNU/Linux family of
operating systems which runs the majority of Web servers, millions of
personal devices, and the most advanced supercomputers.

### It's International Women's Day: Celebrating women in free software 

*From March 8th*

The world of free software projects and the greater free software
movement grow in success and visibility in no small part thanks to the
developmental model that is enabled by the licenses and philosophies
that drive free software. Many projects and the FSF itself have made
leaps in creating more diverse and inclusive spaces over the past few
years. We celebrate International Women's Day by writing about just a
few of the many amazing women around the world who use their
professional and personal time to drive freedom in technology.

* 
<https://www.fsf.org/blogs/community/its-international-womens-day-celebrating-women-in-free-software>

### Three devices from Vikings GmbH now FSF-certified to respect your freedom 

*From March 3rd*

The FSF awarded [Respects Your Freedom (RYF)
certification](https://www.fsf.org/ryf) to three devices from Vikings
GmbH: the Vikings D16 Mainboard, the Vikings X200 libre-friendly
laptop, and the Vikings USB Stereo Sound Adapter. The RYF
certification mark means that the product meets the FSF's standards in
regard to users' freedom, control over the product, and privacy.

<https://www.fsf.org/news/three-devices-from-vikings-gmbh-now-fsf-certified-to-respect-your-freedom>

### W3C misses the point with inadequate security guidance

*From March 3rd*

On March 2nd, the project manager of the World Wide Web Consortium
(W3C) announced unofficial guidance for organizations facing reports
of user-threatening vulnerabilities in their programs or Web
sites. The W3C, which sets the Web's technical specifications, hopes
to appease Defective by Design and other critics concerned about
threats to the Web's security posed by <a
href="https://www.defectivebydesign.org/drm-in-web-standards";>Encrypted
Media Extensions (EME)</a>, a proposal to enshrine <a
href="https://www.defectivebydesign.org/what_is_drm_digital_restrictions_management";>Digital
Restrictions Management (DRM)</a> in Web standards. We urge the
universities, nonprofits, and companies that make up the W3C
membership to <a
href="https://www.defectivebydesign.org/drm-in-web-standards#member-organization-action";>pledge
to block the advancement of EME</a>, and Web users to <a
href="https://www.defectivebydesign.org/drm-in-web-standards#user-action";>make
sure the W3C knows</a> they disapprove of its willingness to normalize
DRM.

### Freedomvote.nl helps voters compare party positions on digital freedom in 
upcoming Dutch election

*From March 2nd by Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE)*

FSFE Netherlands, NLnet, ISPConnect, and Open Source & Overheid
launched Freedomvote.nl to help inform voters in the Dutch general
election, which was held on March 15th 2017. Freedomvote.nl provides
guidance to voters on the topic of digital freedom, based on eight
questions.

### March Free Software Directory meeting recaps

Check out the great work our volunteers accomplished at the March Free
Software Directory meetings. Every week free software activists from
around the world come together in #fsf on irc.freenode.org to help
improve the Free Software Directory.

*March 3rd meeting*

### Join the FSF and friends in updating the Free Software Directory

Tens of thousands of people visit directory.fsf.org each month to
discover free software. Each entry in the Directory contains a wealth
of useful information, from basic category and descriptions to version
control, IRC channels, documentation, and licensing. The Free Software
Directory has been a great resource to software users over the past
decade, but it needs your help staying up-to-date with new and
exciting free software projects.

To help, join our weekly IRC meetings on Fridays. Meetings take place
in the #fsf channel on irc.freenode.org, and usually include a handful of
regulars as well as newcomers. Everyone's welcome.

The next meeting is Friday, April 7th from 12pm to 3pm EST (16:00 to
19:00 UTC). Details here:

  * <https://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Free_Software_Directory:Meetings>

### LibrePlanet featured resource: Software Freedom Activism Guide

Every month on LibrePlanet, we highlight one resource that is
interesting and useful -- often one that could use your help.

For this month, we are highlighting the Activism Guide, which provides
information about how to participate in free software activism. You
are invited to adopt, spread and improve this important resource.

  * <https://libreplanet.org/wiki/Activism_Guide>

Do you have a suggestion for next month's featured resource? Let us
know at <campaigns AT fsf.org>.
