<p> The world has finally realized that &#8220;spying all the time&#8221; is too high a price to pay for social networking platforms like Facebook. Now it&#8217;s up to the hacker community to respond and build a free software social networking distribution to empower end users and help them reclaim their privacy. Software Freedom Law Center attorney James Vasile will talk about the progress of the &#8220;Freedom Box&#8221; box project and how the hacker community can get involved. </p>
