You're doing a great thing for your teen. Have you ever considered hosting a cryptoparty[1]? I just learned about these recently and found out the makerspace in my city used to do one every third thursday, but stopped sometime a few years ago. I've been thinking about getting in touch with whoever used to host it to see about starting it up again

Pretty clear at this point that the US govt is willing to do nothing to claw back big tech. Its going to be things like cryptocurrency, encrypted and decentralized messengers and social networks, etc, that pave the way to getting freedom back. Being loud about using these things especially with younger folks is going to be crucial.

That's what cryptoparties are for though, it's kind of like a workshop for technical and non-technical people to learn how to use those tools with hands-on examples

At the current state of events, in-life meetings are low on my priority list, but this would be fun to do at some point in the future. I have not seen that resource before, thank you for sharing, it appears to be a great starting point!
