Coming soon: Email Self-Defense in Spanish, German, Portuguese, and more

Two weeks ago, we released Email Self-Defense, the FSF's beginner guide to fighting surveillance with free software email encryption. We had an outpouring of support from people who were happy to have a welcoming, accessible guide that also promoted free software and a reduction in the amount of data collected about people in general.

We're excited to announce that volunteers are currently working on translations of the guide and infographic into ten languages. Wow! In the meantime, we've also made some general improvements that will launch with the translations.

In the coming weeks, we'll be announcing translations here and on our primary mailing list, the Free Software Supporter. If you're subscribed you can update the language preferences in your user profile to receive some of the messages in Spanish or French.

We try to give our translators an opportunity to work in teams and review each others' work, but there are some brave volunteers currently translating alone. Send an email as soon as possible to campaigns@fsf.org if you are fluent in Brazilian Portuguese, Romanian, Japanese, Malayalam, or Turkish and would like to help them.
