### When we work together, we achieve our goals

*From July 31*

July 28, 2023 marked the end of our most recent associate member
drive. We appreciate the community that helped us extend our reach,
are proud of every single associate member who is supporting our work,
and are immensely thankful for all the donations we received. This
membership drive started slow, so we called for your help, and you
answered our call: we saw a surge of forty-five new associate members
in the week of the extension -- for a total of 111 new members joining
since the launch of the member drive. This shows once more: **when we
work together we can achieve our goals.** A big thank you to all those
who shared our appeal, put our banner on their websites, and/or gifted
memberships to their friends or family members. Every new member is
one person more who proudly carries the free software message into the
world.

### "Web Environment Integrity" is an all-out attack on the free Internet 

*From July 28*

Using a free browser is now more important than ever. The so-called
"Web Environment Integrity" (WEI) API, which is poised to restrict
users via their browsers, is the worst stunt we've seen from Google in
some time. Beginning its life as an innocuous, if worrying, policy
document posted to Microsoft GitHub, Google has now fast-tracked its
development into their Chromium browser. At its current rate of
progress, WEI -- which basically amounts to *Digital Restrictions
Management (DRM) in the browser* -- will be upon us in no time. Read
why WEI is terrible, and why we must vocally oppose it now. Google's
latest maneuver, if we don't act to stop it, threatens our freedom to
explore the Internet with browsers of our choice.

### From pro-democracy activists to minorities: Why people use Tor and 
encrypted chats

*From July 27*

Read the stories of people who are protecting their privacy with free
software, why they choose freedom and privacy, and why we must
continue to fight to protect our freedoms. Learn about a political
activist who was harassed by her government for speaking up; how
people in Iran, Saudi Arabia, and China use the Tor network to access
censored websites like Wikipedia; and how members of the queer
community in Egypt, for example, are increasingly resorting to
encrypted chats in order to keep their communication hidden from the
prying eyes of the police.

### The campaigns team and the community work together for free software

*From July 25*

This month, we published three new *Working Together for Free
Software* profiles. While their voices may be those of just a small
fraction of the community, we hope their outstanding dedication to the
free software movement will inspire you. We hope that you'll share
them with others, too, under the #WorkingTogether hashtag. Our first
profile follows two developers, Adrien and Sébastien, from the Free
Software Award-winning GNU Jami project, a free as in freedom solution
for private videoconferencing. Next, we hear from fellow Free Software
Award winner Protesilaos Stavrou on what motivates his work on GNU
Emacs. We round out the updates to the *Working Together* profiles
with an interview of Ali Miracle, a developer with the Uruk
project. Each of these three new profiles comes with an accompanying
article with complete responses to interview questions posed by our
campaigns team.

### The second round of FSF board candidate discussions started July 24

The FSF board has chosen a second round of candidates as part of its
board process. All eligible associate members can participate in this
discussion to get involved in the FSF's ongoing search for new board
members. The second round candidates are Luis Guzmán, Maria Chiara
Pievatolo, Markus Schmidt, and Jason Self. As documented in the board
process, FSF associate members are invited to discussions considering
these candidates in the nominee discussion forum. This discussion
round opened on July 24 and is planned to close six weeks
later. Participants must pledge to abide by the participation
agreement.

### Spring *Bulletin*: From privacy-respecting browser extensions to natural 
disaster relief

*From July 13*

The 2023 spring *Free Software Foundation Bulletin* is now online!
Read about free software's role in the right to repair movement,
privacy-oriented browser plugin JShelter, a freedom-enabled volunteer
rescue response to an earthquake, an overview of licensing talks from
this year's LibrePlanet, and a report from the FSF's tech team on how
this year's hybrid LibrePlanet was broadcast live with free software.

### Look behind the scenes of the FSF tech team

*From July 11*

This article gives a glimpse behind the scenes of recent work done by
the FSF tech team. Read about Prometheus network security, completion
of member data migration from an old system to a new system, system
software upgrades, and other work done by the team to keep critical
infrastructure running reliably every day.

### Working together for free software licensing

*From July 6*

Our copyright & licensing associate Craig Topham is continuously
working together with free software developers, lawyers, and
volunteers to assist the community with their licensing questions,
finding hardware that respects your freedom, and keeping the public
informed of interesting free software projects. In this article, Craig
shares some of the accomplishments the Licensing and Compliance Lab
achieved during the last six months.

### RISC-V finds its foothold

*From July 28 by Agam Shah*

RISC-V, a processor architecture under a free license, is improving at
an increasingly rapid pace since its debut nearly a decade ago. The
attention it is receiving by developers globally is encouraging to
those of us who use free software and care about their privacy since
it promises to empower us with a replacement for proprietary processor
architectures such Intel and AMD, which [give remote access to their
manufacturers by design](https://u.fsf.org/2fo). This article also
reports on the recent gains made to supporting free software generally
on RISC-V processing architecture.

### Software freedom & trademarks: Examining Rust's new policy through the 
lens of free software history

*From July 27 by Denver Gingerich*

This article, recently published by the Software Freedom Conservancy,
examines the programming language Rust's new trademark policy through
the lens of history. Other similar trademark policies in the past such
as Java's, PHP's, and Mozilla's have had consequences for the free
software community. Inform yourself about this relevant and important
topic by examining these case studies, and use this knowledge to
prepare yourself for the inevitable discussions ahead.

### 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 Libera.Chat, and usually include a handful of
regulars as well as newcomers. Libera.Chat is accessible from any IRC
client -- Everyone's welcome!

The next meeting is Friday, August 4 from 12:00 to 15:00 EDT (16:00 to
19:00 UTC). Details here:

  * <https://www.fsf.org/events/fsd-20230804-irc>

### LibrePlanet featured resource: LibrePlanet Pages that Need Work

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 LibrePlanet Pages that Need
Work page, which in itself needs some work! You are invited to add to
this page, which is a list of pages from the LibrePlanet wiki that
need work.

  * <https://libreplanet.org/wiki/LibrePlanet:Participate/libreplanet-pages>

Also, please join our second ever LibrePlanet Wiki Edit Fest,
happening Wednesday, August 23 from 12:30 to 14:00 EDT (16:30 to
18:00 UTC). Details here:

  * <https://www.fsf.org/events/2023-08-23-libreplanet-wiki-edit-fest>

<https://ftpmirror.gnu.org/> to be automatically redirected to a
(hopefully) nearby and up-to-date mirror.

This month, we welcome Adrien Bourmault and Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
as co-maintainers of the new package GNU Boot, a free boot firmware
distribution for initializing your hardware and booting your operating
system.

A number of GNU packages, as well as the GNU operating system as a
whole, are looking for maintainers and other assistance.  Please see
<https://www.gnu.org/server/takeaction.html#unmaint> if you'd like to
help.  The general page on how to help GNU is at
