Almost Human s01e06 is a troubling demonstration of how the power to control tech that other people depend on, can be abused. Gangsters give people synthetic hearts, programmed to stop at the end of the month unless the transplant recipient pays the demanded subscription.

Our colleagues @llas and @lexelas are today participating in #OpenSouthCode, in Málaga.

They were talking about why #FreeSoftware needs sustainable and long-term funding and about the challenges of cybersecurity regulation: the #CRA and #FreeSoftware
