[Tdwyt] Campaign Timeframe
by Chris Hayes 31 Oct '13

31 Oct '13

Hi Sam, In another thread I'd asked when this campaign was likely to be 'going live'; it was suggested that you're the person to ask about this. Likewise, do you have a breakdown of any key dates/milestones that you'll need certain things done by? From what I can see, this project is quite young, so things might not have gotten that far yet. Kind regards, Chris

Awesome! Pending two queries, I'm happy to print this version: 1. Can we use the Compacta font legally? 2. Do you think people will understand that theydontwantyou.to is a URL if we disclude www. ? The .to TLD name is not well known, after all Very cool to see this design evolve.

[Tdwyt] Identi.ca links removed

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 I've removed all the links to identi.ca from the tdwyt site. identi.ca has moved to pump.io, and a TDWYT account isn't set up yet so the old links were leading to 404 error pages.

Re: [Tdwyt] Postcards

Kinda important question left until the last minute, is there a particular resolution and/or aspect ratio that you want this post card to be? I'll aim to have a better draft of the post card for you by tomorrow night/following morning; please let me know anything else you think I should know before tomorrow or Wednesday. So long as there isn't excessive additional work, I can imagine that a final draft would be ready for Friday/Saturday. Robert; what do you think of this image? I'm going to try to not pixelate it as much as the previous example (or rather, not as uniformly), so that it's more discernible. Apologies for the delays. . Chris

[Tdwyt] TDWYT Campaign plan
by Sam Tuke 09 Sep '13

09 Sep '13

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Campaign launch - --------------- Campaign launch is planned for 4th November. Below are campaign 'modules' - groups of independent campaign activities. Social media messages have already been prepared and translated to German and French. Enough messages exist for automatic posting one per-day for at least 6 weeks. The campaign website is close to completion and should merely require tweaking. There are multiple contributors, and code and translations are publicly hosted. Confirmed / budgeted modules - ---------------------------- Postcards ~~~~~~~~~ Paper postcards will be printed to promote the campaign goals and website. They will be given to partners and distributors, with a focus on putting them in bars and public places with existing postcard racks. The postcard design will be humorous to encourage sharing and posting. Exact message has yet to be determined, discussion and drafting has already taken place. Stickers ~~~~~~~~ "Freedom not included" stickers will be used to label products that contain digital restrictions, e.g. blu ray disks, computers with non-Free OS preinstalled, DRM'd ebook readers, etc.. Stickering will be a fun & competitive activity for teams to engage in. Potential for pictures and videos of stickering for social media. Stickers will be sent to partners and distributors. Multilingual design is currently near completion. Dispatch to partners and distributors ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Packs containing campaign materials, including stickers and postcards, will be sent to NGO partners and participating universities. Digital vintage postcards - ------------------------- Spoof vintage postcards depicting tech being marketed with over-eager promises, including captions selling restrictions and if they were benefits (e.g. "protects you from running apps that don't make us money"). These will be distributed unofficially on social networks with links to the campaign website to generate interest and humour. Unconfirmed / unbudgeted modules - ---------------------------- Infographics ~~~~~~~~~~~~ One professionally designed infographic will be designed to be spread on social networks. It will be long and narrow to fit SM feeds. It will contain statistics about the impact of digital restrictions on society, e.g. the amount invested in DRM technologies, the amount consumers spend buying the same media twice due to region and device locking, etc. Cartoons ~~~~~~~~ Two professionally illustrated cartoons will be prepared for publication on social networks. They will depict different scenarios of people encountering frustrations with restrictions, finding alternatives, and freeing themselves by switching to better software / devices. They will be humorous to encourage resharing. DVD cases ~~~~~~~~~ Attractive 'TheyDontWantYou.To' DVD case artwork will be prepared. Information about the campaign and digital restrictions will be written and designed to go inside the cases. A few DVD cases will be prepared as examples to start a crowdfunding campaign to fund the manufacture of several thousand more cases. The purpose of the cases is to be distributed to high-street DVD/Blu-Ray retailers, and left in-store for customers to pick up and take. Each donor would receive some DVD cases themselves and donate enough to manufacture more for FSFE to distribute.

[Tdwyt] Introducing myself
by t.beck 07 Sep '13

07 Sep '13

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello everybody, I'm Tilman the new intern in Berlin. I'm very happy to be able to work with the FSFE for the upcoming three months. My internship is also part of my bachelor course of studies (applied informatics) at the 'University of applied science' in Berlin-Schöneweide. In December I'm going to write my thesis. Originated from the Southern Germany, I live in Berlin for 8 years now, sharing a flat with my girlfriend. Beside computers, I'm also interested in traveling, music and of course spending a good time with friends. I chose the FSFE because I think free software is very important to the world, to not let us loose control over our technical devices and to give fair chances to everybody to participate. The situation at the moment shows that the advantages need to be spread further on. FSFE plays an important role here. During my first week at the office in Berlin I learned about the structure of the organization and set up my computers and various accounts I need. I'll upload the initial commit to the new DFD-website very soon, but keep in mind that our office will move next week and we have to invest time on that too. Again, I'm very pleased to be part of the team! So long, Tilman Beck tbeck(a)jabber.fsfe.org -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJSKwSdAAoJEEmTGijXHCOso6sP/3ijKmvMkLTT8ShbNabnmdUH g5zFDvXWSmWgQiYP4LE3YJYNX8oV83srGnxIdQkb3L6uqBO+Tf1rTmomtfFsZy1r FnEo9IoNdjw/CptKaEwe3ezEvERyWBpacwAIxdxtPHOfnvy4IItDE83x83WmhD4A Foy3h5TVBKIWMj4+44ISIGNLJgj2p2S4/3f9tmUaJvRei2HnAz7Qs1Yb2isu3lol nHmBhG7cypLJ4GLw0RBkLM4/HwEMxOcS9/UY0hcBveRZNDsJnGtbWRhkQhAcfrp0 zb76ZazFwCZeYesjs4RswdvRAVfd7/klAytPcM1v9sANV5Gh76FO62bFSoeL3BMn Px9RAG7zkAWVbgVK8wMvAk88RYZ2N1++7qpiJhXbseuJTX0OnCq7usBHm+cGjCIt 9857mdN143Hwk2SnMr/6kqMNPv24x8nmed+b04prsgSDsKlFW5cq5m3oXRb9gR0J wPrL49AXzu/0lTgcTnR61eAE2B68OzQCKdA+dwxbFbHZcRXEaqHYsYTqxlGJLaO3 wjGfQQ28cd8hdUB7eHr2JSY8foyr+NRvZF/6RUBfitYNcdg2gw8qJhMrTtiVAEzO qORFcM+pPCY5+Tujy2x+eFk6MeOVmzUSuYHJ+OuTjW2BKfKjaGt0l08g/dLWdQDS cKluafO/frUjJSxhnfdf =6EpN -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
