<h3 id="YearInReview">Our Year in Review</h3>
<div data-read-more="Summary of our year…">
<p>This past year we've all grown more conscious of our interconnected world.
These events escalate the importance of free software tools that empower
us all. Closed source and proprietary tools have overtaken many
communication channels — particularly when we work from home. Even
conferences and lecture series dedicated to “open source
infrastructure” have been unable to escape the grasp of these closed
systems. As we monitored these diffcult events, we prioritized support for
those in our community that understand the crucial need
for <a href="/blog/2021/feb/08/just-say-no-to-zoom/">conferences run
solely with free software</a>. We have been pleased to support free
communication tools to assist with these efforts. <b>Our commitment to
using, developing, and supporting free software tools and communities has
never been stronger.</b></p>
<p>Over the past year, we took on new work that would have
been <em>impossible</em> without your support. Last month, we filed
a <a href="/vizio">lawsuit against long time license violator Vizio</a>.
Through that lawsuit and many non-litigation ongoing license enforcement
actions, Software Freedom Conservancy leads the field: We stand up for
license compliance and holding corporation accountable when others
won't. Our focus in software licensing defends consumer rights. This novel and
critical approach to license compliance culminates years of effort by our amazing policy and legal experts. We
believe software freedom, when properly and actively upheld, enables everyone to hold
technology providers accountable to the people most
impacted by their actions.</p>
<p id="dmca-exemptions">This year, we filed more DMCA exemption requests than any organization in
the country —
and <a href="/news/2021/oct/28/2021-DMCA-final-exemptions-win/">we won on
every single one</a>. We clarified the right to jailbreak of routers (an
essential activity of our <a href="https://openwrt.org">OpenWrt
project</a>), won a new right to safely investigate devices for license
compliance, and helped solidify privacy-related research. Karen (our
executive director) also participated with a coalition that achieved yet
another exemption for medical devices! Our lawyer, Pam Chestek, <a href="https://www.copyright.gov/1201/2021/hearing-transcripts/210407-Section-1201-Public-Hearing-Class-15-7a-7b.pdf#page=13">testified</a> at the DMCA
hearings on these exemptions, and confronted industry lobbyists directly as
they sought to use their extreme
wealth and legal power to harm consumers. We stridently fight their overreach — one bit at a time.</p>

<h3 id="Highlights">Highlights from some of our projects</h3>
<div data-read-more="Read more about our projects…">
<p>Software Freedom Conservancy helped our projects engage in critical work
this year. Overall, we funded <strong>$1.7 million</strong> in work to
improve software freedom &mdash: this year alone! Those funds
go <em>directly</em> to fund <acronym title="Free and Open Source Software">FOSS</acronym>
contributors. We do the arduous work to sustain these FOSS communities:</p>
<p>We helped <b>Outreachy</b> expand to its largest cohorts ever. Our last
round accepted 71 interns, and we announced this week that the current round
will have 62! (That's 133 interns — an <strong>27% growth</strong> from the previous two
rounds!) We're grateful to be able support Outreachy to serve more
communities who are committed to helping to push back against systemic
underrepresentation in technology and software.</p>
<p><b>Godot</b> has continued to push the boundary of what anyone thought was
possible with an open source game engine. Godot's impressive team, funded
through contracts with Software Freedom Conservancy, continues to building
their community and their excellent codebase. We are so proud of their beneficial
<a href="https://godotengine.org/community">focus on community</a>. Watch
their fun, exciting,
and <a href="https://godotengine.org/article/announcing-2021-godot-games-showreel">brand
new showreel</a> to see what these cutting edge creators are making.</p>
<p>Software Freedom Conservancy also proudly supports, with direct funding of
contributors, the <b>Reproducible Builds</b> team. They ensure the
security of computer systems of all shapes and sizes around the world.
This necessary and vital project becomes even more essential in the age of
direct attacks on technological
infrastructure. The <a href="https://reproducible-builds.org/tools/">tools
they've made</a> are freely available to help others increase
reproducibility in their own projects.</p>
<p><b>OpenWrt</b> recently had their OpenWrt 21.02 release — which
increases the default security options including optional SELinux
and <acronym title="Address Space Layout Randomization">ASLR</acronym>.
OpenWrt empowers users to run a free
operating system on their routers. Combined with <a href="#dmca-exemptions">our DMCA exemption</a>,
the landscape of free firmware is now much easier to explore and
deploy. Meanwhile, another of our projects, <b>coreboot</b>, has further grown the supported hardware
list for freeing your bootloader. These two projects are at the core of
our <a href="https://sfconservancy.org/copyleft-compliance/firmware-liberation.html">firmware
liberation initiative</a>. As our work continues, more companies will learn
what most router companies already know: consumers
prefer hardware that can run copylefted software and — contrary to
popular belief — will gladly pay <em>more</em> for hardware that
respects their rights and freedoms!</p>
<p><b>The Institute for Computing in Research</b> has furthered its mission.
After two successful rounds of interns in Santa Fe, New Mexico,
<acronym title="The Institute for Computing in Research">ICR</acronym>
expanded its intern cohort to include a selection of six high school
students in Portland, Oregon. These unique paid internships introduce high
school students to software freedom as part of a summer research position
that focuses on introducing young scholars to computing in areas of
physical science, life science, social science, arts, and
humanities. Supported by academics at Portland State University, Reed
College, and Oregon State University, the cohort in Portland has projects
in computational biology, natural language processing, pure math, and AI
and game theory. </p>

<h3 id="NewStaff">New staff!</h3>
<div data-read-more="Click more for on our new staff…">
<p>At the end of last year, we
hired <a href="/news/2020/dec/02/sharp-newest-employee/">Sage Sharp</a> as
Senior Director of Diversity & Inclusion; they about to complete their
first year with us. Meanwhile, finishing up his first six months
is <a href="/blog/2021/may/18/pono-introduction/">Daniel
Pono Takamori</a>, our Community Organizer & Non-Profit Problem
Solver. These two are very welcome additions to our team of <em>just five</em>
full-time employees, and <em>one</em> part-time employee. We are proud of the
breadth of skills and dedication of our team.</p>
<p>As a testament to “practice what you preach”, we undertook
what we consider a fair and equitable hiring process which our executive
director
Karen <a href="/blog/2021/oct/15/equitable-hiring/">described
in detail on our website</a>. We
lead by example — with transparency and casting a wide net to avoid just hiring within our circles.</p>
<p>We also updated our website — hopefully, you'll find it easier to
use and that it better conveys our mission and work. Our chat platform moved
to <a href="/blog/2021/jun/21/chat-options/">XMPP</a>. Bridging to IRC and
Matrix is supported, so you are welcome to join with whatever client you like
(unlike other “Loose” options). Throughout the seemingly-endless video
chatting during the pandemic, we have been one of only two FOSS organizations
who insist on using FOSS video chat platforms like Big Blue Button. We are
committed to using free software for communication and demonstrating that
organizations of all sizes can make the same commitment.</p>

<h3 id="WritingAndSpeaking">Writing and Speaking</h3>
<div data-read-more="Find out about our writing and speaking engagements…">
<p>Software Freedom Conservancy team members published important writings
this year to both share essential historical context and modern
interpretations. Denver Gingerich wrote about
the <a href="/blog/2021/mar/25/install-gplv2/">installation requirement for
the GPLv2</a>. Bradley M. Kuhn documented the historical record in his
related piece
about <a href="/blog/2021/jul/23/tivoization-and-the-gpl-right-to-install/">“Tivoization”
and Your Right to Install Under Copyleft</a>. Bradley also explained
how <cite><a href="/blog/2021/jun/30/who-should-own-foss-copyrights/">It
Matters Who Owns Your Copylefted Copyrights</a></cite> — which
garnered a lot of great community conversations. In another vein, Sage
Sharp of Outreachy wrote a tremendous piece
titled <cite><a href="/blog/2021/apr/20/how-to-apologize/">So you want to
apologize… Now what?</a></cite> &mdash: which has helped explain the
entire life cycle apologizing for your own behavior. We can all learn from
this piece about how to act more humanely in our shared spaces of
production.</p>
<p>This was another long year of online conferences. While the traveling was
easier (by not doing it), we miss the face to face relationship building
that we've come to expect from our big
conference gatherings. We can't wait to get back to a sense of normalcy and
at least have a little less latency between us.</p>
<p>Karen, our executive director, gave two keynotes this year, one at the <a href="/news/2021/mar/23/karen-lailec-2021/">Leuven AI Law & Ethics Conference</a> and another at <a href="https://conf.linuxappsummit.org/event/3/contributions/71/">Linux App Summit</a>. Karen also spoke with Marina Zhurakhinskaya at <cite>All Things Open</cite> about the 10+ year history of Outreachy. Karen was also an invited speaker at <a href="https://heales.org/2021/05/28/conference-big-data-a-i-and-healthy-longevity-how-to-progress-faster-and-better-for-all-scientists-thursday-september-9-2021/">Big Data, A.I. and Healthy Longevity: How to progress faster and better for all scientists</a>.</p>
<p>Karen and Bradley were also co-organizers (with others) of the Legal &
Policy Devroom at FOSDEM, where they also moderated panels and spoke.
Daniel Pono Takamori gave a talk
about <cite><a href="http://pdxlinux.org/2021-07-01-FreeSoftware-LegacyOfCommunication.pdf">How
Free Software Continues the Legacy of Open Communication</a></cite> to the
Portland Linux/ Unix Group.</p>
<p>We were also a sponsor of the
fantastic <a href="https://seagl.org/">SeaGL</a> event. A community focused
conference that does an incredible job giving opportunities to first-time
speakers (suitable for community members of all walks of life). They hosted
their conference on the Matrix platform, which further proved it's possible
to run a virtual conference with free software.</p>

<h3 id="HelpUs">Help us Continue this Work</h3>
<p>We are beyond thankful for the ability to continue our work — which
only continues due to <strong>your financial contributions</strong>. We
recognize that not everyone has the same financial leeway to donate as they
have in the past. But please consider giving what you can so that our
organization can continue to advocate and support the rights of all
software users. We work hard and efficiently, and accomplish so much with
our small staff. We hope — through our hard work, creativity, and
passionate dedication — that we've demonstrated over the years how
Software Freedom Conservancy continues to be the beacon of change for
software freedom that the world needs. <a href="/donate/">Please consider

<div data-read-more="A note on t-shirts…">
<p>We're all sick of hearing about supply chains, global shortages, and
deliveries being delayed. But we must tell you up-front that since we have
a small staff we try to batch our t-shirt orders, and given the realities
of the pandemic, we are often a few months behind on t-shirt deliveries.
Those owed t-shirts from early 2021 renewals should receive them by years'
end. Meanwhile, we're working on a new t-shirt design for this year; check
back here for an announcement later in the fundraising season! All
renewals during this fundraising season will receive the new shirt! We so
appreciate everyone's patience! </p>
</div>
<h3 id="VintageT">Vintage T-Shirt Promotion</h3>
<div data-read-more="Would you like a last chance to receive a vintage Conservancy t-shirt? Find out how…">
<p>If you're a Sustainer, you've already received or will soon receive a
t-shirt in our 2018 design shown here. But,
would you like to take advantage of a last chance to get our vintage design — seen sported so often
by <a href="https://twitter.com/bensturmfels/status/599118574641262592">our earliest Sustainers</a> at <a href="https://twitter.com/conservancy/status/786480068512002048">conferences and events</a>? If so, read on!</p>

</div>
<p><strong>UPDATE: Just give $256 total for this year's fundraiser and
receive an additional vintage T-shirt!</strong></p>
<p>But first, as a note to how difficult this year has been, we know that many of our 2019 Sustainers are still
awaiting their t-shirts, which have the wonderful 2018 design. We've had difficulty working through
keeping our staff safe during the pandemic lock downs and making trips to the post office — historically,
we on staff all shared the post office trips, but we all have different COVID-19 risk factors and thus it's all moving
slowly. We appreciate the patience of our Sustainers waiting for t-shirts, and we do have plan to safely send out
the backlog by years' end.</p>
<p>As part of those preparations, we found a treasure trove and now have an exciting promotion for renewing
Sustainers. We found an old stash of <strong>vintage t-shirts</strong>, in the old style! Supplies are limited,
but for those few sustainers who would like to receive one, we have a special offer. Sustainers who give
$256 or more between 2020-01-15 and 2021-01-15 can receive one of these vintage t-shirts! To claim your vintage t-shirt, do the following:
<div class="picture-tiny right">

</div>
<ul>
<li>Renew as a <a href="/sustainer/#annual">an annual sustainer</a> for $256 or more. (Alternatively, if
you already gave this year, make a <a href="/donate/">separate donation</a> so that your 2020 total is $256.)</li>
<li> <a href="mailto:vintaget@sfconservancy.org">Email <vintaget@sfconservancy.org></a> and include the email
address and date(s) of your donation(s) that total $256 and your
desired size. (We have all sizes <strong>except MenM</strong> in
stock. Supplies <em>are</em> limited; we cannot necessarily guarantee
your size selection, and we'll continue to update here as sizes run out.)</li>
</ul></p>
<div class="picture-small left">
<img src="/img/2020-12-04_lots-vintage-shirts.jpg" alt="A big stack of vintage Conservancy t-shirts!" />
<p>Supplies won't last; give $256 and make one of these vintage shirts yours today!</p>
</div>
<p>You too can look cool in the vintage design. Or maybe your original has faded and you're ready to spruce up with a new one? As we said,
supplies are limited so make a big donation today, support Conservancy, and show you've always been old-school — or just
want to look that way!</p>
