VPN platform for creating secure private networks.
Testing this rocket.chat app in a self-hosted environment

Public
Private
What our collectives need
1. security from police and state monitoring; especially since the term anarchism in Romanian may be used to denote lack of order and chaos which can be punished by law; organizations can be used as scapegoats by police;
2. a place to store and back-up more private archives, pictures from protests, documentation, our histories
- we must be careful not to store everything in one place, because it could be easily lost
- - ideally we could duplicate this information in a network of multiple devices to have redundancy; raspberry pies would work
3. a place to talk to each other, it seems that a mastodon
instance would be useful to connect us across Romania
- - we decided that we can gather together in a future session and set up a masto instance
- a masto instance would be useful to have more filtered and concised knowledge, where don't get bombed by all sorts event, commercials and facebook-like features
- - mainstream social networks are still the only ones that can help us reach an audience beyond our bubble
4. action groups where we can chat privately and focused
- facebook groups have become a pain
- - chat groups do not work, currently people use whatsapp and signal, but they can easily become very unfocused
- - we installed rocket.chat on chat.hypha.ro, looks like slack, probably not going to be a huge success; hypha is also very unstable
5. we can't provide services, our resources are fairly limited, incipient, our collective is small
- - we can learn together about technology and spend time together to maintain a server
- - we can install and play with these tools and see how things go

Rosa went on vacation between April, 20 - April, 26
Most of us were (preparing to go) on holiday, therefore we did not have any phisical access to rosa.
Why whe thought rosa decided to go on vacation:
- work being done on the electricity installation of the building at filaret16
- someone unplugging all the sockets while cleaning after the recent community dinner
Why rosa actually went out:
- the SIM installed in the 4G LTE Router ran out of "internet".

In the meantime:
---
- Took rosa to a place where there is wireless internet, configured wpa_supplicant:
1. Create a wpa_supplicant.conf file
- wpa_passphrase "Grace Jones" MY_PSK | sudo tee /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
2. Create a copy of the wpa_supplicant service
- sudo cp /lib/systemd/system/wpa_supplicant.service /etc/systemd/system/wpa_supplicant.service
3. Edit the service to start with the config file we just created
- ExecStart=/sbin/wpa_supplicant -u -s -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -i wlan0
- Restart=always
4. Enable and start the service
- sudo systemctl enable wpa_supplicant.service
- sudo systemctl daemon-reload
- sudo systemctl restart wpa_supplicant.service
