EFF will co-host a free workshop on surveillance self-defense with local grassroots groups in New York and Brooklyn. The workshop will be open to the public, though particularly structured for activists supporting social movements.Participants need not wield technical expertise to attend this session, which is geared towards regular smartphone and laptop users. EFF's Shahid Buttar will facilitate a teach-in and skill-share on surveillance, some immediate and practical steps you can take to protect your communications, and how to work with neighbors to inform surveillance policy at the state and local level. An EFF staff technologist will remotely join for a question & answer session. more
