Is automation taking over Systems Administration? Are highly skilled SysAdmin jobs (and their highly skilled SysAdmins) becoming obsolete? What is to become of the Non-Profit SysAdmin? Are we all going to become Mechanical Turks? Or should tech workers become Wobblies? Who are the Wobblies? Is the tech industry ready for collective action?
We're joined by special guests Sean Howard and "Wobbly Sunny" at our round table to discuss the state of the tech industry, the working conditions for tech workers, and what can be done about it.

System Administrators have worked hard all year, with only a few brief hours off. Now it's the Holiday Season again, so KWNPSA will be taking a holiday!
Join us for an evening of good food and fine beverages at the Abe Erb Restaurant and Brewery. Bring your family, friends and relations -- Social Nights (like every other KWNPSA event) is open to everyone.
We'll start this "meeting" an hour earlier than usual, at 6:00pm, to give us more time to enjoy the evening.

Does your Non-Profit organization collect personal data on people? People in Europe? And what is Personal Data anyway? Does your organization have an office in Europe? Store data in Europe? Process data in Europe? What is the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)? Does it apply to your organization? What policies does your organization need to have? What technical measures need to be in place? What's the SysAdmin's role in all this? Could a SysAdmin be liable?
Marc Paré will provide us with an overview of the GDPR, and outline some of the concerns for Non-Profit SysAdmins.

We've talked about Malware and the importance of Keeping Computers Up To Date, and even just about The Things We Should Fear. But what new hazards are unveiled when you connect two or more computers together? When some of those computers aren't on your own network? When malusers are out there trying to break into your network? When you're actually inviting everyone into your network by running servers and services? Should you just outsource everything? Or are there tools available for the Non-Profit SysAdmin to help secure your networks?
We'll talk about the hazards of running a public network, and go over a list of tools and software.
