At the end of each year, the Chaos Computer Club (CCC) holds the Chaos Communication Congress (C3) in Hamburg, which took place for the 39th time in 2025 (\u2018#39C3\u2019). The topics range from technology and art to ethical and political issues, with lectures and workshops. The focus is on non-hierarchical \u2018do-it-yourself\u2019 activities, and so the event is organised almost exclusively by hackspaces, interest groups or organisations affiliated with the CCC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

<\/a>The FAU Assembly<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

FAU was there for the third time in a row. 39C3 was once again a fantastic event. Our infopoint (also called Assembly at the Congress) was well located and even better attended. So many interesting conversations, so many great encounters that we can't even list them all here. A big thank you to everyone who was there!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What went down very well was our income plot, where participants could stick dots representing their own income on a number line:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"2439e92e-6768-4c07-8d83-627a61b3be88.jpg\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This has once again demonstrated how important it is to discuss your income with your colleagues. Because only together can we achieve more!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Trainee day<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The third day of 39C3 was Trainee Day. Of course, we were there too. We were able to answer questions and provide some important advice, because even during training, you don't have to put up with everything. We had printed copies of our brochure \u201cYour rights at work\u201d<\/a> , which quickly ran out. As well as a small flyer covering the absolute basics of a \u2018solidarity-based, militant attitude in wage labour\u2019:

Post Congress Remote Meetup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We also wanted to reach out to people who, for various reasons, were unable to attend our assembly or who had questions after the event. Even before the start of 39C3, we had announced our \u2018Post-Congress Remote Meetup\u2019 on 14 January 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After a brief introduction to what we do at FAU, everyone had the opportunity to introduce themselves and talk about what they are currently working on.
The range of topics was huge: from redundancies and psychologically stressful working conditions to safety issues caused by poor decisions made by bosses, to general hopelessness and loneliness (and, of course, the imminent \u2018retraining as a carpenter\u2019 \ud83d\ude09 ), everything was covered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>What happens next?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Since the attacks on hard-won freedoms (8-hour day, freedom of expression and assembly, Debanking<\/a>, surveillance) are on the rise and the IT sector has historically had little unionisation, we are planning a month of action in April.
We would like to engage with you in local hack and makespaces to discuss working and living conditions (organising in the workplace, unemployment, care work, etc.).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because we want to move away from frustration and hopelessness towards a better life for everyone.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you feel the same way, we would be happy to visit you. Just get in touch via mail<\/a> or through the Fediverse direct message.<\/a>.

We look forward to seeing you!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
