"I wish I had a more optimistic way of talking about resistance — it is important to recognise that the structures in place make it impossible to resist the use of these systems, unless we talk about how these systems are not inevitable" @VidushiMarda 3rd.obfuscationworkshop.org/…

The talk between @harryhalpin and @yisiliu of @realmaskbook has started at the @ObfuscationWS! This talk will overview the need to use encryption and metadata protection, and how lots of small incentivized nodes can be harnessed by cryptoeconomics! 3rd.obfuscationworkshop.org/

In the session on 'Face-veillance' at @ObfuscationWS and led to ask: have we reached a moment of sedimented carceral socio-technical infrastructure necessitating abolition or are we in a presentist moment where the infrastructure is still in the process of becoming? #Luddism🤔

Cheers to @ObfuscationWS and the organizers for putting on a unique and thoughtful workshop! I love the platframe - it shows the immense possibilities if we commit to building our own tools instead of working around the limitations and harmful assumptions of dominant ones.
The Workshop on Obfuscation is today!!! 💥🧲🧿 We held the sessions short and added many breaks so that you can weave in and out, fitting to your time zones.🌄⏲️🌃 We start at 12pm UTC. Looking forward to all the encounters and discussions. 3rd.obfuscationworkshop.org/… #WoO3

We are queuing up the next session. Join us!
Faceveillance What can different projects on the covering or redesignation of the face as forms of politics teach us in resisting and contesting the increasing use of facial recognition in identifying people & managing populations? Tomorrow at #WoO3 3rd.obfuscationworkshop.org/…

As the @ObfuscationWS blossoms into an intentional, radical achievement today I would like to thank @EroBalsa for his tireless work to make it happen. It feels like the most interesting arts opening/convening I've been to-- all using activist open-source tools & platforms #WoO3

What's in a name, asks @bekah_overdorf as she seeks for an overarching title for these proposals for contestation of ML in the public interest? #sadtadpole "We have a mascot!" 😛
