Right, this is the final version of the talk (well, the slides) that I’ll be presenting tomorrow at the EU Parliament & you can be sure I’ll be using my 10 minutes to speak my mind regardless of what anyone else in the room/the organisers think or want.

@aral
Awesome.
I think the new slides/transitions really help drive the point home.
Do your thing, and hopefully, some of it will stick!
@aral do you have a rough draft of the talk (words) you are going to say?
@aral On some pages, e.g. slide #33, I'll see quoted / referenced text, as with "the tech companies innovative rhetoric..." from The Guardian.
Most remain blank.
(Ironically: DRM shutouts prevent me from screenshotting this, apologies.)

@aral Ah, black "forward" arrow on black background, it took me a while to notice :)
@aral The "privacy is dead" meme goes back to at least Sun Microsystems CEO Scott McNealy, in 2000.
A 2006 referece:

@aral Uh, I'm not convinced this would work well. Picking on people since they're rich(14). Forcing ISPs to pre-censor content(32). Ignore reality(40). Not mention open interoperable standards(41). (Also distributed network isn't "p2p".)
Pretty hopeless since you fight against big business paying politicians, but worths any try anyway.
@aral I'm just impressed if you manage to go through all of that in 10 minutes.
