February felt like a really good month, culminating in RightsCon 2025 being held in Taipei.
Section titled February 2025February 2025
🇹🇼 RightCon 2025 in Taipei. The last week of February was filled with meeting a lot of great people and learning about some really interesting projects. RightsCon was a huge conference, and certainly was much bigger than I expected. It was made even better by having Michelle Thorn, my colleague at the Green Web Foundation, in town for the event. A couple of the projects that I learnt about through various conversations were Open Terms Archive, and a really interesting project that's trying to assess the resilience of Taiwan's internet in the event of multiple submarine cables failing.
There wasn't much else of note during February. I guess the month felt good because it was generally uneventful.
