from looking at the list of participants, i think some of them have a
rather dubious history of involvement in political activism. for
example, if my memory serves me well, priorities seem to have been
rather more towards collaborating with mainstream media and/or the
police (e.g. sukey), as well as promoting online services like youtube
and twitter, rather than identifying with the kinds of projects that
ttfa aims to promote (independent, privacy aware web services).

i would be extremely cautious about working with them.

solidarity,
