The proposed session is not strictly for Debian

One of the key differences between free software and free communications
is that communications has to span multiple platforms

So there is no reason the session won't cover things like choice of
codec, registration mechanisms or privacy issues that are applicable on
Debian, FreedomBox or even for a Windows user

However, I believe Debian is an excellent platform to demonstrate
leadership in this area, given that it has it's roots in principles of
freedom
