*From May 25th*

The FSF seeks a principled, compassionate, and capable leader to be

our Boston office.

The FSF is committed to the notion that users are entitled to control

### Watch and share talks from LibrePlanet 2021: Empowering Users 

*From May 5th*

We're sorry for the delay in publishing the videos from LibrePlanet
2021 -- we faced some unexpected challenges immediately after the
event. But they're here now! We're incredibly proud of the two-day,
all-online conference, which was a showcase for the efforts of the
free software community, with talks ranging from technical how-tos to
personal reflections on activism. We’re proud to be able to share
those accomplishments and insights with you through the videos of the
LibrePlanet 2021 conference talks released last month on our [GNU
MediaGoblin](https://media.libreplanet.org/) and
[PeerTube](https://framatube.org/accounts/fsf/video-channels) pages.

### Community meeting on the future of our IRC presence 

*From May 25th*

In response to current events concerning the Freenode Internet Relay
Chat (IRC) network, the FSF held a community meeting on the future of
both the FSF and GNU's official IRC channels. The FSF is taking
community input into account, and will report on next steps soon.

### Concluding my FSF internship, and the BTCPay extension 

*From May 7th by Kofi Oghenerukevwe (Rukky)*

My internship with the Free Software Foundation has come to an end,
and it’s been an amazing experience. I was able to build, test, and
publish a CiviCRM extension that will help the FSF receive Bitcoin and
Litecoin payments on their platform by integrating with a self-hosted
BTCPay Server. I am very grateful to the FSF tech team -- Ian, Andrew,
Ruben, and Michael -- for supporting me and encouraging me to go as
far as I did with the extension.

### Libreboot 20210522 released!

*From May 22nd by Leah Rowe*

Libreboot is free (as in freedom) boot firmware, which initializes the
hardware (e.g. memory controller, CPU, peripherals) in your computer
so that software can run. Libreboot then starts a bootloader to load
your operating system. It replaces the proprietary BIOS/UEFI firmware
typically found on a computer. Libreboot is compatible with specifical
computer models that use the Intel/AMD x86 architecture. Libreboot
works well with GNU+Linux and BSD operating systems.

The last Libreboot release, version 20160907, was released on
September 7th in 2016. This new release, Libreboot 20210522, is being
released today on May 22nd, 2021. This is a testing release, so expect
there to be some bugs. Every effort has been made to ensure
reliability on all boards, however.

### Amazon’s Ring is the largest civilian surveillance network the US has 
ever seen

*From May 18th by Lauren Bridges*

Ring video doorbells, Amazon’s signature home security product, pose a
serious threat to a free and democratic society. Not only is Ring’s
surveillance network spreading rapidly, it is extending the reach of
law enforcement into private property and expanding the surveillance
of everyday life. What’s more, once Ring users agree to release video
content to law enforcement, there is no way to revoke access and few
limitations on how that content can be used or stored, or with whom it
can be shared.

Ring is effectively building the largest corporate-owned,
civilian-installed surveillance network that the US has ever seen. An
estimated 400,000 Ring devices were sold in December 2019 alone, and
that was before the across-the-board boom in online retail sales
during the pandemic. Amazon is cagey about how many Ring cameras are
active at any one point in time, but estimates drawn from Amazon’s
sales data place yearly sales in the hundreds of millions. The
always-on video surveillance network extends even further when you
consider the millions of users on Ring’s affiliated crime reporting
app, Neighbors, which allows people to upload video from Ring and
non-Ring devices.

As with any number of similar devices, the proprietary software on the
camera and the associated proprietary app mean that users can't verify
or control what these devices are doing. This makes them very much the
opposite of "security" devices.

### Welcome to Inkscape 1.1!

*From May 24th by Inkscape*

Among the highlights in Inkscape 1.1 are a Welcome dialog, a Command
Palette, a revamped Dialog Docking System, and searchable preference
options, along with new formats for exporting your work.

Here at the Inkscape project, we're proud to have contributors from
around the world who invest their time, energy and skills towards
coding, debugging, translating, documenting and promoting the program.

Built mostly with the power of a team of volunteers, this free
software vector editor represents the work of many hearts and hands
from around the world, who ensure that Inkscape remains available free
for everyone to download and enjoy. Big thanks go to the 2020 cohort
of Google Summer of Code (GSoC) students (and their mentors) who
worked hard to deliver some of the features and bug fixes in 1.1.

### GNU Radio Conference 2021 in-person announcement

*From May 26th by GNU Radio Conference organizers*

We are excited to announce that GNU Radio Conference 2021 (GRCon21)
will be running as an in-person event in Charlotte, North Carolina,
alongside a virtual component. Taking into account the current status
of COVID-19 in the US and our survey results, we have determined that
we can safely hold an in-person event. Attendance will be reduced, and
all GRCons going forward will continue to have a virtual component
including live streaming and virtual workshops. In addition, this year
we will also welcome virtual pre-recorded talks with live Q&A (similar
to GRCon20) for those who can’t travel, or who prefer not to.

### Dutch digital autonomy must be based on free software

*From May 18th by Rijk Ravestein*

"The Netherlands is losing grip on Internet security, and is therefore
in danger of losing control over democracy, the rule of law, and the
economic innovation system." This warning comes from the Cyber
Security Council, a national and independent advisory body of the
Dutch government and business community, with members from the
government, industry, and academia. In the Cyber Security Council's
recent advice, they urge the Dutch Cabinet to take quick action to
prevent Dutch society and economy from becoming too dependent on
proprietary technology they cannot control.

### GUADEC 2021 call for participation: BoFs, workshops, and lightning talks

*From May 6th by the GNOME Project*

We are happy to announce that we have officially opened the call for
workshops, BoFs and lightning talks. These sessions are a great way to
share your thoughts with others, discuss various topics, receive
feedback and help specific projects move forward. Bofs and Workshops
can be either one or two hours long, and lightning talks are ten
minutes. Each session is self-organized, and it is up to the hosts and
participants to decide if the session is to be loosely oriented around
a set of topics, or have a well-defined agenda. Lightning talks will
be scheduled by the organizing team. All requests are due by June 6th.

### GCC 8.5 released

*From May 14th by GCC developers*

The GNU Project and the GCC developers are pleased to announce the
release of GCC 8.5.

This release is a bug-fix release, containing fixes for regressions in
GCC 8.4 relative to previous releases of GCC.

### May GNU Emacs news

*From May 27th by Sacha Chua*

In these issues: why I fell in love with GNU Emacs; moving text around
in Emacs; eye-candy for package loading time; checkboxes in org-mode
headings; and more!

### 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. Freenode is accessible from any IRC
client -- Everyone's welcome!

The next meeting is Friday, June 4th, from 12pm to 3pm EDT (16:00 to
19:00 UTC). Details here:

  * <https://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Main_Page>

### LibrePlanet featured resource: Free JavaScript Action Team

Every month on [the LibrePlanet
wiki](https://libreplanet.org/wiki/Main_Page), we highlight one
resource that is interesting and useful -- often one that could use
your help.

For this month, we are highlighting the Free JavaScript Action Team
page, which provides information about how you can get involved in the
fight against proprietary JavaScript. You are invited to adopt, spread
and improve this important resource.

  * <https://libreplanet.org/wiki/Group:Free_Javascript_Action_Team>

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