FSFE Newsletter – June 2015
The June edition of the Free Software Foundation Europe newsletter covers International Day Against DRM, FSFE is looking for a systems architect, and several other topics.One year of encryption with the Email Self-Defense guide
The Free Software Foundation celebrates the first anniversary of the launch of "Email Self-Defense", an infographic and guide to encrypting your email with free software. "Even if you have nothing to hide, using encryption helps protect the privacy of people you communicate with and makes it harder for surveillance systems to isolate messages sent by those that do need protection, like whistleblowers and activists. By encrypting more of the traffic on the net, we give the surveillance systems more opaque information to sift through."
