FYI below - might be around myself, not sure yet but probably. It will
be a fun way to help out :)
Hi Anna,
We will be holding a stall in St Anne’s square 1:00pm to 3:00pm on
Saturday to promote Phil’s talk and any help would be appreciated.
Further details are listed on the Manchester NO2ID event page:

So far the rain looks as though it will hold off all day.
Cheers

Hi there,
I'm glad it went well last night. I had a a nice and stress free time!
(apart from a couple of extreme sugar rushes)
Just forwarding a couple of bits of info from wai wai.
What about focusing on USB key based operating systems like tails /
liberte for the next crypto party? It could be interesting. I've never
gone down that route before but there is a lot to be said for it.

Subject: how to run anonymous LInux OS on Apple Air

Hello,
This article is driven by the request from the raising amount of
MacBook Air user who we met at Crypto Party. For the last while, we have
been encouraging using anonymous LInux OS e.g. Tails and Liberte, which
unfortunately do not support Mac user.
In the last article, we have introduced booting linux usb mac with a
boot DVD. This time we have figured how to boot it with a boot usb and
we have managed to boot Liberte on macbook air.
Ingredients:
-A mac
-2 USBs (for convenience and clarity, we will refer them as USB I and
USB II)
-Liberte Linux
-reFIT bootloader
1. Format and install liberte Linux on USB I
(to see the step-by-step guide, please check follow the first half of
this article:
https://lilithlela.cyberguerrilla.org/?p=5636)
2. lnstall reFit. on USB II
Go to http://refit.sourceforge.net/, download rEFIt 0.14 (disk image)
Unpack it and copy the “efi” folder to the root of the volume. Open
Terminal and enter the following commands:
“/Volumes/(yourusbname)/efi/refit/enable.sh”
3.Keep both USBs in the machine and restart it. When the white screen
come on( the moment before the apple logo appears), press 'alt'--this
enables us to choose which volumes we want our machine to boot from.
4.Now you should about see two extra volumes beside your original
apple internal hard disk. Click 'EFI BOOT', then your liberte should be
running smoothly.
note:
1. we have tested this on a macbook air 2010 model.
2. This does not support Tails.
3. This also does not work on apple mini.(2010)

Awesome, thanks. Did I remember we had a section we filed in on the night with something like 'what do we mean by encryption' ? And it came down to authentication, privacy and something else ?

Hi, interesting info here (@penny - ATOS are involved in this, keep reading)
http://brief.care-data.info/
Including opt out forms.
Followed links from here
http://stopthecyborgs.org/2014/01/25/how-to-opt-out-of-sharing-your-medical…
*
**Interesting Facts:*
Medical staff treating you in GP surgeries, hospitals, A&E, pharmacies
and GP out-of-hours centres will not use, or be able to use, this database.
care.data is not about information sharing between healthcare professionals.
It is about data extraction, linkage and analysis: in other words, data
mining.
*Also*
If you do nothing, i.e. you do not opt-out, then your medical
information /will/ be extracted and uploaded to the HSCIC.
The HSCIC has no intention of /ever/ deleting your care.data. In fact,
your care.data record will be added to on a regular basis by ongoing
uploads from your GP records (unless you opt-out).
You /cannot/ get your uploaded data deleted, even if you make a Section
10 request under the Data Protection Act.
*and**
*
You will not be informed when your data has been shared by the HSCIC
You cannot approve or select the organisations that the HSCIC gives your
information to
You cannot prohibit the release of your information to non-NHS
organisations, such as commercial or insurance companies
You cannot select what information from your care.record is released,
and what is not
You cannot specify that information from your care.record is only used
for research purposes
You cannot object to your information being provided to organisations,
or for particular research, that you find ethically unacceptable
You cannot object to your information being provided to organisations
who might already hold other information about you
I am trying to arrange a speaker as ATOS are the people paid to
implement the project so this is of interest to the welfare campaign
groups as well, plus vegans, am waiting for a statement from DR Hadwen
to see if there if the data could help reduce animal tests or if it will
have no/a negative effect
Food for thought!

Online demo is up on the https://www.mailpile.is/ website, and (of
course) the alpha software is available for download (although it isn't
yet a simple install - and deliberately so).
The project is still nicely on track ;-)
