# DIGITAL FREEDOM DAYS

## May 15 – 17, 2026
Westspitze Tübingen

The fifth Tübingen Digital Freedom Days (#TDF5) stand under the motto "Freiräume verschlüsseln" (Encrypt Free Spaces). On this and many other topics around digital freedom, data protection, net politics, and technology, there will be talks, workshops, and discussions. Beyond that, TDF offers space for networking, exchange, and creativity.

The event is aimed not only at people from "the chaos" (members and friends of the Chaos Computer Club) but everyone interested in a life of freedom and self-determination in the digital society. Admission is free. To make this possible, we appreciate donations and sponsors.

All Creatures Welcome!
