My Name is J.Y.Amihud. I made the initial 3 versions of the "ZOOM is for ZUCKERS". English, Russian and Hebrew. This is important for you to send it into every hole imaginable. I know it's not good to use WhatsApp. But if your school requires you to use it anyway. It's not too bad to use it ones to share this message. Proprietary Software is a big problem. We have to fight for our freedom. It's a war.

Now with the Covid-19 pandemic schools had to think fast to continue teaching kids in some way. And didn't really think it through. Since most schools use Zoom to teach kids. This means that kids has to run non-free software. Even more. According to stallman.org/zoom.html they have to run proprietary malware. This behaviour toward kids ought to be illegal.

In order to trust the software we have to control it. Either schools have to develop their own tools for that. Which is possible but unreasonable to expect soon. Or they must use Free (as in Freedom) Software exclusively.

What you can do to help:

  • Spread the files. Either by posting. Or printing and spreading this way.
  • Translate them to more languages. (Note: CC-BY-SA on the files)
  • Make similar files for other software.

I will review the changes and post them to the repository at: https://notabug.org/jyamihud/FreeSoftwareActivism

If you have the files from some other source. And your language is not included. Please visit the NotABug link. Maybe there are additional languages already.

For more information on the issue please see Richard Stallman's video that inspired me to do this.
