• + Ethics in Technology

  Through various occasions and subjects during my studies of computer sciences I came to the conclusion that there is a responsibility that comes with the creation of technology. (Es gibt eine Verantwortung, die der Schaffung von Technologie innewohnt.) This inherent responsibility changes our view of technology and its development.
  I will yet have to tinker with this one.

• + Free- and Open Source Software

  Linux, Open Source and Free Software in my eyes opened up a brand new world to our fingertips. Free information or information libre becomes more and more popular through projects like the Wikipedia, Creative Commons and of course, Free Software.
  Technology (through Free Software) started forming a movement of freedom of information and accessibility which we can witness these days. I try to be a part of it.
  Privacy has become a big issue to me in the last years and I think this has a lot to do with the fact that the access to information has become ubiquitous for most of us.

• + Freedom of Information and Speech

  Not only do knowledge, information and ideas need to be accessible to everyone, just as importantly their creation, publication and modification have to be an opportunity to everyone regardless of origin or social status.
  Information that concerns the general public needs to be available for use as well as the secrecy of private data needs to be enforced both by public and private efforts. (..trying to paraphrase the CCC motto: "Öffentliche Daten nutzen, private Daten schützen")

• + Politics and activities in politics

  I've been interested in politics (mostly social, ethical and environmental aspects) for a long time. Today I'm politically active mostly through my activities in the Chaos Computer Club as well as through Free Software related and political groups (see "Activities").

• + Music, Photography, Movies

  Concerning non-technology and political subjects, I'm totally into music (don't ask me for a genre, I like pretty much everything besides Volksmusik..), photography (have a look at my photolog mindestalter), movies.
  I started taking photos when I bought my first digital camera in 2002 so when it comes to real photography I'm an illiterate really.
