🌍 Brave Conversations is coming to Stuttgart! 🚀
🟢 5/7/2025, 10am to 04pm
🟢 @Aquarium Campus Vaihingen
🟢 Pfaffenwaldring 45

Since 2017, Brave Conversations has created spaces around the world for people to explore how emerging technologies are transforming our lives—and how we are shaping them in return. Rooted in the spirit of the Web Science Conferences, these events bring critical discussions into the public sphere, inviting diverse voices to reflect, question, and co-create our digital future.

🗓️ Join us for Brave Conversations: Stuttgart 2025 – a dynamic, day-long event open to everyone interested in the societal impact of digital innovation.
We at IRIS – the 🔵 Interchange Forum for Reflecting on Intelligent Systems are proud and excited to co-organize this event alongside School for Talents (with Lisa Kohler), Stuttgarter Change Labs (Spela Setzen), and Intersticia, and to host it at the Universität Stuttgart.
Whether you're a student, researcher, creative thinker, or simply curious about how humans and technologies shape one another — your voice matters in these conversations.

💡 Expect thoughtful dialogue, hands-on learning, and a welcoming atmosphere led by an experienced team of facilitators, including Anni Rowland-Campbell, Hannah Stewart, and Ghada Ibrahim, with contributions from our brilliant team at the University of Stuttgart.

💬 We believe that change begins with dialogue. Come share your perspective and help shape the digital world we want to live in.

AdGuard 1.0 is now available for Linux with CLI-based ad blocking, app exclusions, and proxy support.

However, as proprietary software, it lacks full privacy control.

For a better solution, I still recommend uBlock Origin — open-source, privacy-respecting, and feature-rich.
