Sadly I already have plans that night. But you should go!

Ottawa International Writers Festival

Enshittification

8:00pm, Saturday Oct 25 at Library and Archives Canada in Ottawa — "Remember when the internet was young and alive, vibrant and accessible and free? Cory Doctorow does, and he knows what’s gone wrong—and he sees a way forward. This is a magnificent book." - James Gleick

@shawnhooper @pluralistic Yes, @pluralistic book tour appearances are fun and very interesting. Of course his basic talk is content fans have read before, but he is remarkably quick, entertaining and insightful when answering audience questions on topics unrelated to his presentation. Even when he chats with people while signing their books, he is engaged with the individual. (I would become a pre-recorded automaton.)
