A couple years ago I saw a version of this talk from the chaos computer club on youtube and really loved it. I think its an important issue.
So I emailed Cory and asked if I could interview him for a podcast. He responded almost immediately and said yes. At the time he was doing interviews on major network programs about a new book, and I figured he would never respond.
He was basically like you would expect Cory Doctorow to be in person, smart and well spoken, friendly and fired up about computing freedom type issues. We need more public intellectuals like him.
- pa7ch 6y agoI saw Cory Doctorow speak at Clemson Uni in South Carolina of all places sometime around 2008. The room was only partially filled. I was already into computer security, but I was really impressed by him and have followed and read his work ever since. He had a big influence on me. I went on to see him at security conferences on the west coast many years later.
