A daytime skill-share in communications and radio use for use in a wide variety of situations.

Anyone can turn up on the day, but we'd like an idea of how many to expect and to be able to get in contact if details change, so please let us know if you're planning on coming - either by email to  nickkassam@hotmail.com or by text to 07796 864 649. Bring some food for a picnic, something waterproof to throw on just in case, and come prepared for an active day outdoors.

Then use your newfound skills to "Break The Bank" as the Camp For Climate Action 2010 targets RBS and other climate criminals, 19th-25th August, Edinburgh. See  http://climatecamp.org.uk/ for more details (this training is for anyone irrespective of whether you intend to go to the camp or be involved in comms at the camp!)

Please be in touch if you'd like to bring such a skillshare to your neighbourhood.

So, here's someone offering "Activist Comms" training. They seem to be using a hotmail address.

Duh? So you're an activist comms trainer, and you use a corporate, state-monitored email provider?

FFS.

competencies?

"Duh? So you're an activist comms trainer, and you use a corporate, state-monitored email provider?"

You use the level of security appropriate to the situation. Hotmail is fine for something like this.

And if you trust ANY email provider for your privacy, you are just kidding yourself.

Use PGP encryption and it doesn't matter where you email is hosted - they can't read it.

Anonymous communication is more difficult, but possible.

On second thoughts, have I just been successfully trolled? Grr!
