I just watched Cory Doctorow's speech at 39C3.
It was passionate, complex, insightful, scary, yet hopeful. I'm a little irked at the massive run-on sentences that require rewinding to understand, but the frustration and dedication come through in spades.
I learned a lot about the power Seattle and Silicon Valley have over governments. And the authoritarian initiatives use this to great affect.
I'm off American tech, I am using open source/FOSS-based OSs and programs, I donate to all the indies I use, yet it doesn't feel like enough.
Brilliant. Thought-provoking. Enraging. It feels like the start of something bigger.
