Guest speaker: Cory Doctorow cory (at) eff (dot) org PROGRAM NOTES: Update! October 27, 2015 Victory for Users: Librarian of Congress Renews and Expands Protections for Fair Uses   Today's podcast features a 2015 Palenque Norte Lecture given by Cory Doctorow at this year's Burning Man Festival. Cory is a well-known science fiction writer and lecturer who warns us about how much of our freedom has already been assumed by rich corporations through their manipulation of the law through the use of technology. Whether you realize it or not, your personal freedom has already been significantly compromised in the digital domain, and unless you become aware of what is taking place, and then do something about it, Orwell's world of “1984” will continue to encroach on your life. “We have not reached peak surveillance . . . but we have reached peak awareness of surveillance.” -Cory Doctorow Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF.org) Download MP3 PCs – Right click, select option Macs – Ctrl-Click, select option
