Just got word that I'll be speaking again at this year's #LibrePlanet! I was going to attend regardless, but I'm very excited to be able to continue to build off of last year's talk.
The title of this year's talk is The Ethics Void. Here's a rough abstract:
Medicine, legal, finance, journalism, scientific research—each of these fields and many others have widely adopted codes of ethics governing the lives of their professionals. Some of these codes may even be enshrined in law. And this is for good reason: these are fields that have enormous consequences.
Software and technology pervade not only through these fields, but through virtually every aspect of our lives. Yet, when compared to other fields, our community leaders and educators have produced an ethics void. Last year, I introduced numerous topics concerning #privacy, #security, and #freedom that raise serious ethical concerns. Join me this year as we consider some of those examples and others in an attempt to derive a code of ethics that compares to each of these other fields, and to consider how leaders and educators should approach ethics within education and guidance.
For this talk, I want to solicit the community at various points. I know what _I_ want to talk about, but what are some of the most important ethical issues to _you_? Unfortunately there's far too much to fit into a 40m talk! Also feel free to e-mail me at mtg@gnu.org.

!watching 'Raving Iran' - a totalitarian regime is fighting their citizens but thanks to the Internet new hope arises. #Freedom cannot be hidden forever!
People say ''my freedom ends where your freedom starts''.
Have you ever thought of it being a missconcept of what #freedom means?
It would mean as more people living on earth as less freedom for an individual.
That's false. I'm free to use this service because many made it possible.
Freedom can only mean to increase our potentials. There is no such thing as indipendence. We're all interdepending. And to some extend we're all connected.
Deswegen sollte man auch #Android generell meiden, es ist halt #free-beer und nicht #freedom software. Plus #Google hatte doch mal was mit der #NSA? Mich wuerde es nicht wundern, wenn das so ist. Die "Advertising-Id" denke ich mal bei z.B. #YouTube fleissig mitgesendet.
