Diferencia entre revisiones de «FeministWiki:Bienvenida»

* A wiki, where educational and informational articles on feminist topics can be curated by the community.  Like Wikipedia, but for feminism.  (You're reading a page of the wiki right now.)

* A [https://blogs.feministwiki.org/ blog network], where members who wish to publish articles can become authors on the shared blog or get their own dedicated sub-blog like: [https://blogs.feministwiki.org/socjuswiz/ SocialJusticeWizardry]

* A [https://files.feministwiki.org file-storage platform] (similar to DropBox) where you can upload files you want to save, and optionally share them with others.  For instance, you could upload PDF documents, information charts, recordings of seminars, or even just feminist memes, so you can access them from any computer.

Everyone who has a FeministWiki membership can automatically use all of these services, by logging in with their FeministWiki username and password.

Further, every member automatically owns an e-mail address like ''janedoe@feministwiki.org'' which they can use to send and receive e-mails.  This might be useful, for example, if you don't want to use your personal e-mail address for political purposes.

This includes, for instance, anti-prostitution and anti-pornography activism, female reproductive rights, opposition to gender stereotypes, support for female-only spaces, allyship with lesbian feminists and generally support for lesbian rights, and so on.

Genuine intersectional approaches are definitely valued, such as allyship with black feminists, support of women in poverty, etc., whereas faux-intersectionality that denies sex-based oppression and centers male interests is frowned upon.

If you want maximum security, '''you should never use any FeministWiki service to store or transmit sensitive information'''.  The [[FW:Technician|technician(s)]] who have administrative access to the server can see your chat messages, emails, files uploaded to file storage, and so on, unless you use encryption on your end before uploading/transmitting the data and decrypt it again after downloading/receiving it.  (Sadly, most software does not yet make this sort of client-side encryption easy.) There is also always the possibility of security holes in the server leading to data leaks, even if the technicians are not malicious and even if they follow common security best practices.

The site was set up by [[FW:Technician|a male computer programmer]] who wanted to do volunteer work for the radical feminist movement (and also train his computer skills).  For now, he prefers not to reveal his real-life identity, to deter abuse from anti-feminists.  He is well aware of the repeated scandals surrounding "male feminists" and has no expectation of gaining the trust of all members.  As such, he tries to create an open and well-documented infrastructure that should be easy to replicate by any other IT specialist in case something goes wrong.  Also, the site does not expect members to provide any personal information.  (See also the previous section.)  This way, members shouldn't ''need'' to put trust in whoever is running the site, as they could take things under their own control if needed.
