|
||||
|
||||
<p>The Swedish city of Gothenburg hosted the <a href="/news/2023/news-20230428-01.html">2023 edition of the Free
|
||||
Software Legal & Licensing Workshop (LLW)</a>, the annual conference for
|
||||
the Legal Network community. A few days later, FOSS-North took place,
|
||||
the conference in Gothenburg that brings together the Nordic Free
|
||||
Software communities. The FSFE organised a track on political and legal
|
||||
aspects of Free Software and also participated in the community day
|
||||
that preceded the conference.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>During FOSS-North, over 180 participants took the opportunity to
|
||||
learn and discuss about Free Software in more than 20 sessions. FSFE's
|
||||
Policy Project Manager Lina Ceballos gave a keynote speech about the
|
||||
Interoperable Europe Act and its possible impact on the Free Software
|
||||
community. </p>
|
||||
<p>📺 The recordings of the sessions will be available on
|
||||
<a href="ttps://media.fsfe.org ">the FSFE Peertube channel</a> soon, so stay tuned!"

<p>The Free Software Foundation Europe is a partner of the Next Generation Internet Zero

provides support to NGI0 grantee projects on legal and licensing

issues. In addition, the FSFE helps them become REUSE compliant.

|

Students stop university from using only proprietary
|
||||
authentication</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Vilnius Tech officials attempted to enforce the use of
|
||||
proprietary two factor identification (2FA) methods. Some students were
|
||||
concerned the methods would compromise privacy and could not be run in
|
||||
their devices, so they proposed an alternative authentication method.
|
||||
Eventually, the university reversed its decision.

|

All about Device Neutrality with Lucas Lasota</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Although digital devices are all around us, the number of devices
|
||||
that cannot run Free Software is growing, with smartphones, PCs, and
|
||||
routers being particularly problematic. In this episode, Lucas Lasota
|
||||
joins Bonnie Mehring to discuss Device Neutrality and Router Freedom.
|
||||
Lucas explains how software freedom, the absence of vendor lock-in, and
|
||||
end-user control over data are crucial to breaking monopolies in
|
||||
digital markets, promoting an open Internet, and ensuring access to
|
||||
Free Software in devices. </p>

<p>Last year, the FSFE presented the REUSE initiative at the Weizenbaum
|
||||
Conference 2022 „Practicing Sovereignty – Interventions for Open
|
||||
Digital Futures”. The presentation resulted in an <a
|
||||

|
||||
article</a> (EN, page 66-71) explaining how REUSE specifications
|
||||
facilitate and improve management policies for the digital commons by
|
||||
improving data and metadata communication for individuals, communities,
|
||||
governments, and businesses.</p>

<p> You can now get your copy of Ada &

edition <a

or at your favourite book store</a>, the English version is currently

it? It helps to support a book under a Creative Commons Share-alike
