Description

What is the Internet of Things (IOT)? How does this emerging technology change our understanding of online privacy and safety? What do we need to know to use and embrace this technology safely? Will our fridges and watches be used to hack into our houses? Join us for a special workshop to answer these questions and more!

Class Category: Privacy & Security


Bag Check Policy
We do not allow bags or purses at our facility. Please leave them at home or be prepared to check them at the front desk.

If you’d like to bring your laptop or tablet to class, please notify the front desk team as you check in. They will provide you with an Equipment Pass. Please keep this pass with your device while at Free Geek.

Closed Toe Shoe Policy
Free Geek is a warehouse environment. For your safety, please wear closed toed shoes whenever you come to Free Geek -- even if just taking a class.

Free street parking is available throughout our neighborhood. We do have a limited number of parking passes on loan if you need to park in a 2-hour Zone G parking spot. You can ask for these when you arrive. If none are available, most classes are 2 hours. Longer classes have a break in the middle.

Safer Space Policy
We strive to make Free Geek a welcoming, safe and comfortable space for everyone (volunteers, staff, donors, visitors) and appreciate your best efforts to treat all others with respect and understanding. Thank you for doing your part to make this a safer learning space for everyone regardless of their background, experience, and abilities. If you see anyone engaging in any of the below activities, please let a staff member know so we can follow up appropriately. The following are not acceptable behaviors at Free Geek: Attitudes, jokes, and language that are discriminatory or demeaning on the basis of race, class, gender identity, sex, age, spoken language, nationality, culture, physical appearance, sexual orientation, or ability/disability.
