On the Web, Everyone Can Hear You Scream (Podcast)

by Ben Chertoff on January 25, 2008 at 09:28 PM

Be careful what you leave in a voicemail: It might end up on the Switched Show (podcast, direct link), via YouTube and just about every major TV and radio outlet in the nation. We discuss implications of privacy in a digital world -- from warrantless searches of Blackberry e-mail in-boxes to the unfortunate case of an angry phone message turned YouTube phenomena. PLUS: The Macbook Air crash lands with critics.

There's nothing wrong with the World listening to us scream because the internet is powerless. Right now all the information we share is used against us in a World driven by chaos and fear. When society harnesses the full power of the net, the corporations will be powerless to stop those who can unleash it's power. Right now we are screaming for justice and equality and we are being ignored. Soon the internet will have ways for us to verify the wrongs we site. Imagine the cost to an evil corporation or the media if we have a way to verify what we say is true. Instant equality. David can sleigh Goliath with a pen. The conspiracy never begins because all we see will be the truth in real time. The Revolution will not be Televised. It's coming through the net. Why do you think Hollywood is fighting so hard to stop the internet productions? The writers will will!
