Under the motto “Illegal Instructions”, the 38th Chaos Communication Congress (38C3), the annual conference organised by the Chaos Computer Club (CCC), is back at the end of December. As one of the largest and most prominent hacker and tech conferences in Europe, the Congress attracts over ten-thousand of attendees annually, from hackers, technologists, activists, artist, and curious newcomers from all over the world.

One more time, you will find some of the FSFE staffers and volunteers at the Bits & Baüme habitat in the Hamburg Congress Center. There, we will join other digital rights organisations with an assembly and organise several talks and events. Come by at our ‘Ada & Zangemann’ readings by our volunteers and watch this story as an animated movie, participate in our discussion about governance in the Fedivese, find five minutes to listening to our lightning talks, and learn more about sparking children’s interest in coding at our talk on the community stage, a FSFE women meeting..... and let’s do not forget our daily 19:00h date at our booth, where we will be signing together the Free Software song.
