Best of Information Freedom and Prisoner Liberation - Heimlich-Manöver

Explore the best of information freedom and prisoner liberation in this 51-minute conference talk from the 37C3 event. Delve into the challenges of political despair and the limitations of state responses to crises. Learn about significant developments in transparency advocacy, including lost lawsuits against Frontex, investigations into far-right presence in the EU Parliament, and the "Pimmelgate" files. Discover how a small investigation led to the largest prisoner release in German history. Gain insights into notable freedom of information lawsuits, ongoing criminal proceedings against FragDenStaat, failed money transfers to EU border police, and the impact of these efforts. Hear about the achievements of the Freedom Fund, which has liberated over 900 people from prison in two years and initiated legislative change. Expect a mix of serious discussion and potentially some musical elements in this German-language presentation by Arne Semsrott.
