[community] Community Meeting ( Mar 14 ): Critical Perspectives on the Blockchain

[Obara, Justin]

The presenter for today’s community meeting has asked me to forward along a message to participants.

We're excited to present tomorrow, in preparation for a interactive workshop tomorrow we'd like to request the group to download the Metamask Chrome Plugin<http://metamask.io/>.

The app is:

  1.  open-source<https://github.com/MetaMask/metamask-extension>,
  2.  private keys are generated in the user's computers so not even the Metamask team has access
  3.  no data is bieng recorded and sent to the Metamask team

We plan on distributing on test ether to the group as part of the workshop.

Thanks
Justin
