<br>
<b>Description</b>:<br>
uMatrix is a webextension security and privacy add on for
Firefox.<br>

cookies, JavaScript, CSS, pictures and video.<br>

For example, you can allow cookies, JavaScript, CSS and images
for <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.example.com">www.example.com</a> and only CSS and images from cdb.example.com
while blocking everything from spies.exampleduplicate.com.<br>
Attendees will know what the web components are that uMatrix
controls, how to use the uMatrix GUI interface and save rules.<br>

<b>der.hans: Federated Microblogging with Mastodon</b><b><br>
</b><br>
<b>Description:</b><br>
Mastodon is a decentralized, open source social network. It
implements ActivityPub for compatibility with other federated
services such as Plume blog engine, PixelFed picture sharing
service and PeerTube video sharing service.<br>
Mastodon has per message privacy controls. Each message can be
fully public, unlisted, private of direct.<br>
Mastodon also gives you multiple options to block content,
accounts or even complete domains.<br>
Since Mastodon is federated there are many servers. Choose the
independently-operated service that meets your needs. Like
email, you aren't limited to just members of that particular
service. You can even install your own instance.<br>
Mastodon posts are limited to 500 characters and intentionally
do not have rich text. It's for microblogging :).<br>
<br>
