Freedom Tech Weekend episodes
- Create your own VPN with Tailscale - FTK 1
Welcome to the first episode of Freedom Tech Weekend. This is a show that streams every Friday at 15:30 UTC or 10:30 Central (Bitcoin Park Time).
In this episode we discuss Tailscale, the personal VPN app that lets you connect together your own devices to create a secure tunnel from anywhere in the world.
Moving forward, the show will be interactive with the community for people who are there live as well as those who interact on social media in the days leading up to the stream.
