  • get close to people to open an audio+video jitsi chat. This works in small circles or people.
  • join a fireside area to join a bigger jitsi chat discussion.
  • Explore the world! A Journey awaits!! Will you dare entering the Guantanamarsh prison? Will you find out the truth about Mount Dox (hint: take the path to the East!)




The village is mostly:

  • A cozy village and campfire area, with Jitsi and Big Blue Button rooms, an audio stream (Radio Free Assange) and a video playlist. A place to meet and organize;
  • A bunch of resources, objects that open web pages, signage and tools whenever you get near them;
  • A quest, an adventure in a cold dark world, where participants can earn badges while making mysterious discoveries…
  • HINT: Follow the path towards the East… will you find and dare visiting the prison of Guantanamarsh?

Whistleblow Village was built as part of RC3, in December 2020. Find some background information about RC3 on a dedicated archive page.

RC3, the “Remote Congress Experience” has been the occasion to organize against the ongoing persecution of publishers and whistleblowers worldwide, with a focus on the extradition procedure of Julian Assange to the USA, (where he faces up to 175 years in prison for “espionage”) -- and the verdict of the 4th of January 2021.

The “Whistleblow Village” has been a hub for information, action, invention and coordination to end Assange's political persecution as well as the persecution of whistleblowers and publishers everywhere. It is a place to discuss and explore the consequences of such a “war on journalism”; it is a place to celebrate the importance of freedom to publish and access information; and a place for exploring the ethical use of technology for publishing and countering surveillance, etc.

Throughout RC3 there has been a number of panels, group discussions, various collective efforts and initiatives, workshops, etc. Decentralized infrastructure will be shared ( including this wiki, pads, a PeerTube instance, a radio stream, and more) Our only limit is the pixelated sky!

After RC3, the village was brought back online, on our own servers, as an island now disconnected from the other maps/villages of RC3…

Let's list what can be organized in this space, along with the following pad: https://cryptpad.fr/pad/#/2/pad/edit/XioLI3V0dobQb6rQy6siDtcF/
