TODAY I INTERVIEWED AN EXPERT!

An Experience!

Interview Notes:
  • If you have a weird idea →Famous (Before) vs. Weird Idea →Businesses/Companies → famous maybe...(Now)
  • The change that we see in technology is not technology itself  it is the global thing that companies/businesses erupt
  • James Boyle → the environment movement is a great example of how change can be made →Therefore there is hope that if we care enough about any subject at all we can change this world for the better
  • Pluralism: Power is in the hands of many people
  • Money spent by school =More spent on censorship on computers rather than beneficial things like sport programs, textbooks, etc. 
  • THE POWER LIES WITHIN BUSINESSES!!
Today, I was lucky enough to interview, Cory Doctorow, a man I didn't know much about to be quite honest. Now, for those who don't know Cory is a technology activist which is someone who brings to light the changes needed within the infrastructure of technology, while also being a science fiction writer, writing things from novels to picture books. During,  the interview I felt numerous emotions/ thoughts. I feared that I wouldn't be able to keep up with the conversation as he is an intellectual but even if I couldn't understand some things I walked away with a better understanding but more importantly a new experience. Like, I learned and or realized businesses/corporations hold the power to the world. All in all, this interview helped me open my eyes to soceity.
