1
00:00:01,300 --> 00:00:05,189
our weekly video hangout series.

2
00:00:05,189 --> 00:00:09,309
I think... let's see, we started a little bit off
time so I'll say it again.

3
00:00:09,308 --> 00:00:09,958
Welcome to GV Face, our weekly video hangout series.

4
00:00:09,958 --> 00:00:16,070
Today we are celebrating the 25th birthday

5
00:00:16,070 --> 00:00:20,050
of the World Wide Web. Pretty exciting.
That was on Wednesday.

6
00:00:20,050 --> 00:00:23,400
We've got a really all-star lineup of guests

7
00:00:23,399 --> 00:00:26,939
on today's program.

8
00:00:26,939 --> 00:00:30,140
Moving from left to right we have

9
00:00:30,140 --> 00:00:35,179
Alan Emtage, a very special guest who is

10
00:00:35,179 --> 00:00:38,469
gonna talk to us about his

11
00:00:38,469 --> 00:00:41,698
very special creation of

12
00:00:41,698 --> 00:00:44,719
the first web browser.

13
00:00:44,719 --> 00:00:49,489
We have Jeremy Clark in Montreal. Jeremy is a technical director at Global Voices.

14
00:00:49,488 --> 00:00:52,718
Josh Levy from Free Press

15
00:00:52,719 --> 00:00:56,480
in Massachusetts in the U.S., and Renata Avila,

16
00:00:56,479 --> 00:00:59,959
campaign manager for The Web We Want

17
00:00:59,960 --> 00:01:03,710
Creative Commons extraordinaire, and

18
00:01:03,710 --> 00:01:07,939
[?] Starr who is joining us from Berlin. Welcome, everybody!

19
00:01:07,939 --> 00:01:11,170
So we wanna just start today's

20
00:01:11,170 --> 00:01:14,359
show by talking a little bit about

21
00:01:14,359 --> 00:01:21,310
the World Wide Web and the Internet, 'cause a lot of people think that they're the same thing

22
00:01:22,739 --> 00:01:26,559
when actually that's not quite true

23
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:30,079
wanna first turn to Jeremy I'm

24
00:01:30,079 --> 00:01:33,590
and just ask chair could you break it
down for us

25
00:01:33,590 --> 00:01:37,310
like I thought that the internet was
invented in the seventies but

26
00:01:37,310 --> 00:01:40,960
if it's the 25th birthday have the
weapons

27
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:44,169
what does that mean okay

28
00:01:44,170 --> 00:01:47,650
well the best place to start I think is

29
00:01:47,650 --> 00:01:52,770
the internet who has existed in various
formats

30
00:01:52,769 --> 00:01:58,140
since the 1970s as he say up but it was
the web that made it really enter our

31
00:01:58,140 --> 00:01:58,780
homes

32
00:01:58,780 --> 00:02:02,250
and so understanding the relationship is
important

33
00:02:02,250 --> 00:02:07,459
so the internet was invented by the US
government in a lot of sense is

34
00:02:07,459 --> 00:02:12,098
a mix of military in science funding I
that developed the network at the actual

35
00:02:12,098 --> 00:02:13,078
computers

36
00:02:13,079 --> 00:02:16,099
that can communicate with each other
over wires

37
00:02:16,098 --> 00:02:20,818
arm now another related technology that
is

38
00:02:20,818 --> 00:02:23,828
also comprise that built into the bad

39
00:02:23,829 --> 00:02:27,090
is called hypertext and that is the
notion

40
00:02:27,090 --> 00:02:32,468
out documents that can link between each
other immediately

41
00:02:32,468 --> 00:02:36,150
without having I to go and fetch a
separate document

42
00:02:36,150 --> 00:02:39,569
arm so there were lots of system since
the nineteen sixties

43
00:02:39,568 --> 00:02:43,149
that we're trying to implement hypertext
like that to do with an example

44
00:02:43,150 --> 00:02:46,959
up but all of them where commercial
expensive closed

45
00:02:46,959 --> 00:02:50,829
and none of them were very popular so
Tim berners-lee

46
00:02:50,829 --> 00:02:54,530
who is the inventor of the Internet I I

47
00:02:54,530 --> 00:02:57,530
though web obviously the World Wide Web
arm

48
00:02:57,530 --> 00:03:01,590
put those two things together by
building a service that runs

49
00:03:01,590 --> 00:03:05,530
on top of the Internet and he called it
the World Wide Web

50
00:03:05,530 --> 00:03:08,748
soul what the World Wide Web is is

51
00:03:08,748 --> 00:03:12,150
be decentralized hypertext I

52
00:03:12,150 --> 00:03:15,938
engine that we used I to communicate
between

53
00:03:15,938 --> 00:03:19,120
computers our web pages so

54
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,819
what makes up web is three things

55
00:03:22,818 --> 00:03:26,998
URL's or you our eyes universal Resource
Locator

56
00:03:26,998 --> 00:03:30,180
which are the addresses we use to find
things on the web

57
00:03:30,180 --> 00:03:34,639
Bob HTML which is the Hypertext Markup
Language

58
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:39,010
I which is the way that be information
is stored and sent

59
00:03:39,009 --> 00:03:42,039
so that we can then used browsers to

60
00:03:42,039 --> 00:03:45,669
view HTML and then all the documents

61
00:03:45,669 --> 00:03:48,828
can be understood and then also

62
00:03:48,829 --> 00:03:52,340
they display the links so that the
Hypertext part if it works and we can

63
00:03:52,340 --> 00:03:53,900
jump around from page to page

64
00:03:53,900 --> 00:03:59,438
I'm the final part is HTTP which is the
Hypertext Transfer Protocol

65
00:03:59,438 --> 00:04:03,968
which is the communication method by
which the different computers

66
00:04:03,968 --> 00:04:07,378
can talk to each other and send be

67
00:04:07,378 --> 00:04:11,209
I HTML documents back and forth
depending on the URL's

68
00:04:11,209 --> 00:04:16,608
arm so when he built it there were some
very important things that he built into

69
00:04:16,608 --> 00:04:17,449
this system

70
00:04:17,449 --> 00:04:21,120
that didn't exist before and the main
one is

71
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:24,319
universal of worship so he always
intended

72
00:04:24,319 --> 00:04:28,920
that anyone would be able to access
these web pages

73
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:32,379
and anyone would be able to add their
own web pages without asking for

74
00:04:32,379 --> 00:04:33,399
permission

75
00:04:33,399 --> 00:04:38,250
I with the X very explicit special
condition that anyone can link to any

76
00:04:38,250 --> 00:04:39,439
other web page

77
00:04:39,439 --> 00:04:42,779
without permission previous hypertext
systems

78
00:04:42,779 --> 00:04:47,939
required that basically for you to link
to me I have to accept that link can

79
00:04:47,939 --> 00:04:50,069
probably create a link back to you

80
00:04:50,069 --> 00:04:53,319
and that was the required on the web
which gives us a lot of freedom to make

81
00:04:53,319 --> 00:04:55,699
the people we who wit wouldn't want us

82
00:04:55,699 --> 00:04:59,389
to be able to link them for example so
no one can say I'm putting up tree

83
00:04:59,389 --> 00:05:00,649
content but you

84
00:05:00,649 --> 00:05:04,089
can't send your readers here because I
hate you et cetera

85
00:05:04,089 --> 00:05:07,689
are the other one is that you made it
completely completely 3

86
00:05:07,689 --> 00:05:11,689
so in the world a mentor in world them
programming

87
00:05:11,689 --> 00:05:14,800
the most free thing is generally
considered to be the GPL

88
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:19,720
open source free software licenses and
Tim berners-lee actually almost use the

89
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:23,990
GPL because he wanted that what web
software he was building to be free

90
00:05:23,990 --> 00:05:28,180
but at the last minute yes he changed
his mind made it call public domain

91
00:05:28,180 --> 00:05:32,170
because in certain ways the GPL is
actually more respect

92
00:05:32,170 --> 00:05:35,449
restrictive because it forces other
people like certain commercial actors

93
00:05:35,449 --> 00:05:37,060
wouldn't have wanted to use

94
00:05:37,060 --> 00:05:41,430
web technology if it were GPL so he made
a full public domain

95
00:05:41,430 --> 00:05:44,750
and then from there when I'm to make all
of the standard size

96
00:05:44,750 --> 00:05:48,810
open and I general and three as possible

97
00:05:48,810 --> 00:05:52,740
are so that's my extremely brief history
internet if anyone is curious

98
00:05:52,740 --> 00:05:56,819
he wrote a wonderful book called weaving
the web about his experiences

99
00:05:56,819 --> 00:06:00,279
as you can see its short and he

100
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,549
highlighted interesting technical
information in it without

101
00:06:03,550 --> 00:06:07,680
I'll it being overwhelming it's very
approachable and he's a really

102
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,480
interesting person ended the book is
much better than his tweets which are

103
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:10,890
usually

104
00:06:10,889 --> 00:06:15,279
in procuring all

105
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:18,939
crowded thank coach that's great chair

106
00:06:18,939 --> 00:06:22,629
I mean I think that that helps on in
conversations about

107
00:06:22,629 --> 00:06:26,560
internet policy in Internet governance
there's a lot of emphasis

108
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,829
on the ability to kinda creepy

109
00:06:29,829 --> 00:06:33,639
innovate without permission like for
everybody to

110
00:06:33,639 --> 00:06:37,419
be able to build parks a the web and

111
00:06:37,420 --> 00:06:41,680
and what you just laid out for us makes
it clear how important

112
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:46,030
a web peace up the infrastructure is for
that

113
00:06:46,029 --> 00:06:50,929
for that capacity to become a real
tangible thing and somebody that

114
00:06:50,930 --> 00:06:54,480
something that now we can do you know we
don't have to have

115
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:57,850
technical expertise to kindness build
our own

116
00:06:57,850 --> 00:07:02,120
our own spaces there I'm so I'm

117
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:06,160
if I can add just one more thing sorry I
as want to give a couple examples the

118
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,540
things that happen over the internet
that arent to bad

119
00:07:08,540 --> 00:07:11,629
because that was the actual I miss a
question so

120
00:07:11,629 --> 00:07:15,920
one example would be torrents where York
the cookie to computers connect to each

121
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:16,509
other

122
00:07:16,509 --> 00:07:20,279
and stream information directly without
any URL's

123
00:07:20,279 --> 00:07:24,289
being mixed into the process I'm another
one is email at its core

124
00:07:24,290 --> 00:07:28,120
is its own communication protocol that
doesn't have to use the web although we

125
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:28,860
often use

126
00:07:28,860 --> 00:07:31,980
web sites to access and manage our now

127
00:07:31,980 --> 00:07:35,680
arm and then another one was the one
right before the web came out

128
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:39,110
them a very popular protocol was called
go for which

129
00:07:39,110 --> 00:07:42,810
people liked and sort it worked like the
where'd you just surf around and find

130
00:07:42,810 --> 00:07:43,439
things

131
00:07:43,439 --> 00:07:47,259
but it actually became commercial right
around the time

132
00:07:47,259 --> 00:07:50,539
that the web came out so people have
would have had to start paying and

133
00:07:50,540 --> 00:07:51,840
instead of having to pay

134
00:07:51,839 --> 00:07:56,519
they switched to using HTTP a shemale
and the world but

135
00:07:56,519 --> 00:08:00,209
thank you so I want to move to Alan now

136
00:08:00,209 --> 00:08:04,120
I'm how I couldn't bill the first

137
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:05,709
search engine

138
00:08:05,709 --> 00:08:09,039
and I'm kinda like

139
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:13,020
overwhelmed and feel sort of like giddy
and nervous

140
00:08:13,019 --> 00:08:16,659
having apparently speaker her big deal

141
00:08:16,660 --> 00:08:20,090
I'm salome just I

142
00:08:20,089 --> 00:08:24,750
you could tell us cuz I think a lot of
people don't know about archie

143
00:08:24,750 --> 00:08:28,269
on it would be really cool just to hear
about

144
00:08:28,269 --> 00:08:33,629
E all you sir what you were doing that
made you decide

145
00:08:33,629 --> 00:08:38,188
should to do this and kinda what it was
like and then

146
00:08:38,190 --> 00:08:41,289
mean everything you've seen sense
unfortunately

147
00:08:41,288 --> 00:08:44,929
where time limited but welcome you know
therapy

148
00:08:44,929 --> 00:08:48,778
well arm I well that was lacking that

149
00:08:48,778 --> 00:08:52,958
19 I 89 and

150
00:08:52,958 --> 00:08:58,619
a I was working out as a system and
mentorship therefore I am getting worse

151
00:08:58,620 --> 00:08:59,789
there's no cracks chips

152
00:08:59,789 --> 00:09:04,079
McGill University and I'm I A

153
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:08,459
was responsible for getting all software
for one on my responsibilities

154
00:09:08,458 --> 00:09:11,958
getting software for the faculty and the
students

155
00:09:11,958 --> 00:09:16,989
are and at that time there it three
major protocols on the internet this is

156
00:09:16,990 --> 00:09:17,769
pretty where

157
00:09:17,769 --> 00:09:21,110
I'll was I world's

158
00:09:21,110 --> 00:09:25,039
telnet which would allow you to log into
a remote machine

159
00:09:25,039 --> 00:09:28,689
email I which allow you to communicate

160
00:09:28,690 --> 00:09:31,920
I with one what we do know 10

161
00:09:31,919 --> 00:09:35,528
me more machines your and

162
00:09:35,528 --> 00:09:39,278
FTP which was the File Transfer Protocol
which allowed you to move

163
00:09:39,278 --> 00:09:42,870
Wow data files or file was from one
which

164
00:09:42,870 --> 00:09:45,919
one sheet to another and at the time
what we had was

165
00:09:45,919 --> 00:09:50,429
people had me it remember it was a non
commercial Internet

166
00:09:50,429 --> 00:09:53,939
time actually commercial traffic was
forbidden on the Internet

167
00:09:53,940 --> 00:09:57,220
time because it was run by the National
Science Foundation

168
00:09:57,220 --> 00:10:00,330
was using educational money and
therefore

169
00:10:00,330 --> 00:10:04,690
other than companies with research arms
like ID and I'll

170
00:10:04,690 --> 00:10:08,400
and HD and those kinds of things we
didn't have any commercial traffic on

171
00:10:08,399 --> 00:10:09,519
the Internet which

172
00:10:09,519 --> 00:10:12,829
why would a seems kinda amazing to even
think about

173
00:10:12,830 --> 00:10:16,778
and I so what people who did

174
00:10:16,778 --> 00:10:20,970
were out to provide are three states on
your machine

175
00:10:20,970 --> 00:10:24,430
remember you know at the time a big a
big

176
00:10:24,429 --> 00:10:28,969
this will be a megabyte you know I'll
and so people would provide

177
00:10:28,970 --> 00:10:32,060
common a or depositary still

178
00:10:32,059 --> 00:10:35,549
that that you could deposit I'm

179
00:10:35,549 --> 00:10:39,639
programs that you had written and I'll
data files

180
00:10:39,639 --> 00:10:43,899
and documents back in stock into the
central repositories

181
00:10:43,899 --> 00:10:47,299
that will spread around the internet
that other people can then

182
00:10:47,299 --> 00:10:52,000
you cheaper and so I spend a lot of my
time trying to locate software

183
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,879
or the information that means that
students in the Faculty are trying to

184
00:10:55,879 --> 00:10:56,399
find

185
00:10:56,399 --> 00:10:59,419
and I got tired and since I'm easy and
the geek

186
00:10:59,419 --> 00:11:03,049
I A arm I A I

187
00:11:03,049 --> 00:11:06,969
automated the process a got instead of
doing it manually

188
00:11:06,970 --> 00:11:10,450
I had a bunch in scripts wake up in the
middle of the night every night

189
00:11:10,450 --> 00:11:14,079
and go all index these files

190
00:11:14,078 --> 00:11:17,909
now remember all of this was just file
listings it's not like we will it's not

191
00:11:17,909 --> 00:11:18,528
like a

192
00:11:18,528 --> 00:11:21,980
I'll search engine will be today I if
yes

193
00:11:21,980 --> 00:11:25,519
just I just found it's all it was bonds

194
00:11:25,519 --> 00:11:29,370
and so what they would do with it would
go out every night

195
00:11:29,370 --> 00:11:32,870
yes all the file names and all the
repositories allow you to search

196
00:11:32,870 --> 00:11:36,528
those lists a plummets I only used it
for myself

197
00:11:36,528 --> 00:11:39,750
I only used it I'm for my own

198
00:11:39,750 --> 00:11:44,929
for my own personal use on at one point
my eyeballs was also

199
00:11:44,929 --> 00:11:48,028
all students at your grad student at
University I'll

200
00:11:48,028 --> 00:11:51,139
let peter deutsch lettin you know that

201
00:11:51,139 --> 00:11:54,708
I'm somebody was asking for you know to
date could

202
00:11:54,708 --> 00:11:57,979
somebody tell them where arm

203
00:11:57,980 --> 00:12:01,879
emails pretty creepy software was and

204
00:12:01,879 --> 00:12:06,659
I we from we see

205
00:12:06,659 --> 00:12:10,198
you know he came in ASCII you at this
database iniki mostly

206
00:12:10,198 --> 00:12:14,179
if I I could help out tonight gave it to
him in it you know

207
00:12:14,179 --> 00:12:18,000
Pakistan pack a minute later I had the
information and so he put this

208
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:21,389
yeah posting online and I'll

209
00:12:21,389 --> 00:12:24,490
people then started asking well you know

210
00:12:24,490 --> 00:12:27,919
can you find this from Ian in all these
manual request

211
00:12:27,919 --> 00:12:32,159
basically either through email or Usenet
postings which is what we're using

212
00:12:32,159 --> 00:12:36,208
time and he thought was a silly that's
not quite doing these things manually

213
00:12:36,208 --> 00:12:38,359
one week just allow people access

214
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:42,889
to the database itself and in a moment
of insanity

215
00:12:42,889 --> 00:12:46,708
I we have to come up with a name for it
and I said okay well let's just call it

216
00:12:46,708 --> 00:12:51,708
archie which is our client without be
and dad are

217
00:12:51,708 --> 00:12:54,828
and with a no vote so out both here for
months

218
00:12:54,828 --> 00:12:59,539
we were consuming what's happened all
high quality traffic to Eastern Canada

219
00:12:59,539 --> 00:13:04,259
on as this search engine became his
people

220
00:13:04,259 --> 00:13:08,188
you know work now I you you know people
who know RGR

221
00:13:08,188 --> 00:13:12,969
generally people up a certain age I
won't mention what what ages but

222
00:13:12,970 --> 00:13:17,889
and it's generally people who were in
university or working

223
00:13:17,889 --> 00:13:22,019
on the internet so it would have been
researched people people in academia

224
00:13:22,019 --> 00:13:25,490
I in the early 90s orgiastic for

225
00:13:25,490 --> 00:13:28,779
about I am a.m.

226
00:13:28,779 --> 00:13:32,230
five years for five years %uh and

227
00:13:32,230 --> 00:13:35,409
only in next st PE archives it never

228
00:13:35,409 --> 00:13:38,769
I'll index where now I went on

229
00:13:38,769 --> 00:13:43,799
as or TJ popular and I got one ball in
the standards policies not gonna stop I

230
00:13:43,799 --> 00:13:44,529
worked

231
00:13:44,529 --> 00:13:48,250
of very closely with Tim berners-lee to
I am

232
00:13:48,250 --> 00:13:51,429
to standardize for example I did the and
Graham

233
00:13:51,429 --> 00:13:55,669
media the standard-setting body to the
Internet DCI 88

234
00:13:55,669 --> 00:13:59,088
I to standardize URL's because

235
00:13:59,089 --> 00:14:02,760
10 had come up with a set of above rules
the world and the

236
00:14:02,759 --> 00:14:05,779
as me looked at expanding that's larger
range

237
00:14:05,779 --> 00:14:09,519
out %uh resources we realize that what
rules did not

238
00:14:09,519 --> 00:14:12,649
on a ver all cases so we worked

239
00:14:12,649 --> 00:14:17,470
for our 10 brought that specification
his original specification to the

240
00:14:17,470 --> 00:14:21,160
to group and we worked on it for I don't
remember

241
00:14:21,159 --> 00:14:25,049
might not see a year or so it come up
with a standard for you or else so all

242
00:14:25,049 --> 00:14:26,929
of those you're also use

243
00:14:26,929 --> 00:14:30,279
day in and day out world were
standardized as a result

244
00:14:30,279 --> 00:14:34,669
all what many so it was I it was a
really exciting time

245
00:14:34,669 --> 00:14:38,969
it was at time out by you know the
question I always get is why did

246
00:14:38,970 --> 00:14:42,790
I make a billion dollars of a bit and I
keep reminding people that

247
00:14:42,789 --> 00:14:46,349
are mostly people who are pioneers with
the accepted Mr

248
00:14:46,350 --> 00:14:49,379
edmark and Jason arm or

249
00:14:49,379 --> 00:14:52,990
didn't make a whole lot of money off
with the squirrel

250
00:14:52,990 --> 00:14:57,240
the switch in the plains we were working
in an environment which

251
00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:00,419
I'll put a premium on I'll

252
00:15:00,419 --> 00:15:03,828
you're getting the technology out there
making it is widely available as

253
00:15:03,828 --> 00:15:04,809
possible

254
00:15:04,809 --> 00:15:08,739
I tens big coup with Sharon which is the

255
00:15:08,740 --> 00:15:11,948
organization that work for when we first
develop where

256
00:15:11,948 --> 00:15:15,188
was two guests earned to put I'll

257
00:15:15,188 --> 00:15:18,568
the the HDD where software that he
agreed

258
00:15:18,568 --> 00:15:22,208
into the public to me all so it wasn't
even choose to give away

259
00:15:22,208 --> 00:15:26,049
it was surgeons property as it as an
employee

260
00:15:26,049 --> 00:15:30,359
he it was actually belong to Sir and
down

261
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:34,419
I she he actually convince them to be
able to

262
00:15:34,419 --> 00:15:37,659
but in the public domain what's what
really all

263
00:15:37,659 --> 00:15:40,688
17 Center with a firearm with the whole

264
00:15:40,688 --> 00:15:44,328
so I'll at the time the the

265
00:15:44,328 --> 00:15:48,409
philosophy behind it it's really let's
get this out there this is a brave new

266
00:15:48,409 --> 00:15:52,219
world we don't know what's what all this
technology can be used for

267
00:15:52,220 --> 00:15:56,199
I don't think any of us including 10
imagine what it would become

268
00:15:56,198 --> 00:15:59,729
a you know he he always had a much
grander vision a bit

269
00:15:59,730 --> 00:16:04,579
but I don't I I can guarantee you I
spent many many many many in our

270
00:16:04,578 --> 00:16:08,859
and I with David sandbar is changing it
then and I can't guarantee you that

271
00:16:08,860 --> 00:16:11,980
he did not suit anymore certain

272
00:16:11,980 --> 00:16:15,079
I'm I should dare and

273
00:16:15,078 --> 00:16:19,099
you know he even he I don't think having
idea that it would

274
00:16:19,100 --> 00:16:22,899
a CD take over the world attack the
world's population will be using this

275
00:16:22,899 --> 00:16:23,938
system or

276
00:16:23,938 --> 00:16:28,698
he created twenty years later to anybody

277
00:16:28,698 --> 00:16:32,409
or thank you so much I mean so

278
00:16:32,409 --> 00:16:36,188
speaking and threats yeah it has I'm

279
00:16:36,188 --> 00:16:39,480
changed and I guess

280
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:42,740
taken over in a way I that me

281
00:16:42,740 --> 00:16:46,009
that mean I'm sure wouldn't have
expected a

282
00:16:46,009 --> 00:16:49,088
I wanted to now move to Josh

283
00:16:49,089 --> 00:16:53,140
and judge were not I'll cool are both

284
00:16:53,139 --> 00:16:56,289
perini I'll who

285
00:16:56,289 --> 00:17:00,198
very committed involves

286
00:17:00,198 --> 00:17:03,918
leaders and what is now become

287
00:17:03,918 --> 00:17:07,618
a global at for two

288
00:17:07,618 --> 00:17:11,938
mean the way it was surprising in to
save the Internet or preserve and

289
00:17:11,939 --> 00:17:12,919
protect

290
00:17:12,919 --> 00:17:16,199
to open this on and all up to

291
00:17:16,199 --> 00:17:19,619
right to tree expression access

292
00:17:19,618 --> 00:17:23,417
on and up also privacy that have

293
00:17:23,419 --> 00:17:27,369
that me all would feel are embedded
actually

294
00:17:27,368 --> 00:17:30,399
in the way that it was bill so

295
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:34,710
Josh I wonder if you could explain to us
really briefly what

296
00:17:34,710 --> 00:17:39,179
your where your role is in your
organization and then also

297
00:17:39,179 --> 00:17:43,650
on tell us about the web we want
campaign

298
00:17:43,650 --> 00:17:47,880
and explain you know how you think this

299
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:51,610
rights movement is is shaping up and

300
00:17:51,609 --> 00:17:55,678
and if you can kinda link it with
everything that Allen just laid out for

301
00:17:55,679 --> 00:17:56,120
us

302
00:17:56,119 --> 00:18:00,349
out to be really wonderful although my
best so

303
00:18:00,349 --> 00:18:04,369
my name's Josh levy I'm from Free Press
where

304
00:18:04,369 --> 00:18:09,099
us-based organization we advocate for

305
00:18:09,099 --> 00:18:12,599
better technology media policy that
allows

306
00:18:12,599 --> 00:18:15,659
or an open Internet or better
representation

307
00:18:15,660 --> 00:18:18,910
people in the media including in and an
immediate

308
00:18:18,910 --> 00:18:22,190
thats online and for open access

309
00:18:22,190 --> 00:18:26,230
information and this Asian ever talk
method

310
00:18:26,230 --> 00:18:30,500
anniversary at the web has really
central to our work because we've been

311
00:18:30,500 --> 00:18:31,058
fighting

312
00:18:31,058 --> 00:18:34,349
for example to you at past

313
00:18:34,349 --> 00:18:38,089
strong mentality policies here in the US
for years

314
00:18:38,089 --> 00:18:41,819
at basically ever since the issue first
came up with the mid 2000's

315
00:18:41,819 --> 00:18:44,819
missile big internet service providers
blocking

316
00:18:44,819 --> 00:18:48,379
trafficking coming from their
destinations and

317
00:18:48,380 --> 00:18:52,270
that fight is ongoing the FCC to better
communications commission here in the US

318
00:18:52,269 --> 00:18:52,849
which

319
00:18:52,849 --> 00:18:56,709
is charged with overseeing
communications and technology policy

320
00:18:56,710 --> 00:19:02,079
past rules in 2010 they were intended to
protect me chali but we're passing our

321
00:19:02,079 --> 00:19:05,649
in a way that we knew what was gonna
hold up in court

322
00:19:05,650 --> 00:19:09,519
anywhere as unfortunately we saw that

323
00:19:09,519 --> 00:19:13,720
happened earlier this year when I court
in Washington DC

324
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,509
throughout those roles effectively
throwing out any net neutrality

325
00:19:16,509 --> 00:19:18,140
protections that people have

326
00:19:18,140 --> 00:19:21,540
and so this gets back kinda but Jeremy
were saying

327
00:19:21,539 --> 00:19:24,678
the internet versus the web right so
when we're talking about net neutrality

328
00:19:24,679 --> 00:19:26,330
which I have a lot of people

329
00:19:26,329 --> 00:19:29,389
heard about this on Sat that you should
be able to access

330
00:19:29,390 --> 00:19:33,320
any information on why online without
anybody getting in the way

331
00:19:33,319 --> 00:19:36,519
out with it that's a big company or the
government

332
00:19:36,519 --> 00:19:39,779
an that is essentially

333
00:19:39,779 --> 00:19:45,160
that's it a policy that applies to the
Internet to the ways in which all are

334
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,390
computers connect with each other and we
have this basic understanding

335
00:19:48,390 --> 00:19:52,610
that the internet should be reno it
meaning that my computer should be able

336
00:19:52,609 --> 00:19:57,038
next yours into this well networked
computers without any entity

337
00:19:57,038 --> 00:20:00,950
inspecting the traffic trying to
understand what you're trying to access

338
00:20:00,950 --> 00:20:05,390
and based on that are in a blog so it
doesn't like the video watching slowing

339
00:20:05,390 --> 00:20:06,309
it down our

340
00:20:06,308 --> 00:20:10,869
denied application using walking it that
that should be totally unacceptable we

341
00:20:10,869 --> 00:20:12,029
should be able to net

342
00:20:12,029 --> 00:20:15,788
to whatever we want in whatever way we
want and that includes using the web

343
00:20:15,788 --> 00:20:17,160
rights to the web

344
00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:20,690
is basically an application that ride
over the Internet

345
00:20:20,690 --> 00:20:24,110
the internet says global network the
weather is just one application that

346
00:20:24,109 --> 00:20:24,619
uses that

347
00:20:24,619 --> 00:20:28,649
or network and so it is essential net
challenged essential using where the

348
00:20:28,650 --> 00:20:33,090
as as we've seen today using the web is
so essential to all our lives

349
00:20:33,089 --> 00:20:36,759
and big companies and governments have
so much power over it

350
00:20:36,759 --> 00:20:41,029
bad at the inn block alright things
political speech

351
00:20:41,029 --> 00:20:44,089
video that you want to watch features a
cat there so

352
00:20:44,089 --> 00:20:47,428
I'm anyway so that's what the press is
doing in large part is trying to protect

353
00:20:47,429 --> 00:20:47,940
that notion

354
00:20:47,940 --> 00:20:51,759
net neutrality and wall added that fight

355
00:20:51,759 --> 00:20:54,839
came a number campaign link their at me

356
00:20:54,839 --> 00:20:59,019
stock so it was that bad copyright
they'll your get your the US

357
00:20:59,019 --> 00:21:02,889
and after that you know realization I
think here the US around the world that

358
00:21:02,890 --> 00:21:03,650
we are needed

359
00:21:03,650 --> 00:21:06,740
I each other a little bit or those of us
who have been

360
00:21:06,740 --> 00:21:11,558
advocating for reopen it for a long time
and so we started doing that

361
00:21:11,558 --> 00:21:14,548
repressed led the development and
wrapping up something called the

362
00:21:14,548 --> 00:21:16,069
decoration etc reno

363
00:21:16,069 --> 00:21:20,329
which was a simple statement of
principles out they are right to access

364
00:21:20,329 --> 00:21:21,779
information online

365
00:21:21,779 --> 00:21:25,750
and Adam backing up really fruitful
relationship with Tim berners-lee

366
00:21:25,750 --> 00:21:29,058
organization the world wide web
foundation

367
00:21:29,058 --> 00:21:32,649
and we discussed ways in which we could
move that effort

368
00:21:32,650 --> 00:21:35,660
forward this you that declaration effort

369
00:21:35,660 --> 00:21:39,880
to involve more troops around the world
more people around the world

370
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:43,890
and shit guarantee that we all have
access to information

371
00:21:43,890 --> 00:21:47,390
and that that access and the principles
behind it

372
00:21:47,390 --> 00:21:51,299
are not a demanded any one country or
anyone

373
00:21:51,298 --> 00:21:56,369
it also added that in this great project
the web we want which we're not going to

374
00:21:56,369 --> 00:21:57,869
tell you more about

375
00:21:57,869 --> 00:22:00,909
which is seeking to do just that to you

376
00:22:00,910 --> 00:22:04,788
pass laws around the world that will
protect people's right to access the

377
00:22:04,788 --> 00:22:05,140
internet

378
00:22:05,140 --> 00:22:09,350
into to access content on the web
without anybody getting in the way

379
00:22:09,349 --> 00:22:14,319
and its its building steam very very
quickly

380
00:22:14,319 --> 00:22:17,200
we are working with countries around the
world developed their own set of

381
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:19,640
principles regarding the webinar rights
on it

382
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:23,900
and organizing lot smarter organizations
that it really excited

383
00:22:23,900 --> 00:22:28,720
by getting involved in this effort and
art remote uniting

384
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:32,660

war doing this book ASO

400
00:23:36,269 --> 00:23:40,179
basically they can be what we are trying
to achieve a here

401
00:23:40,179 --> 00:23:43,370
you do and more from their reactions
because the

402
00:23:43,369 --> 00:23:47,529
reactions that lets users say you you
outcropping approach

403
00:23:47,529 --> 00:23:50,599
you have a positive agenda like this a
first

404
00:23:50,599 --> 00:23:55,069
in different countries and a note so
nobody

405
00:23:55,069 --> 00:24:00,359
and what happens is usually the we got
together let me know and we reacted

406
00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:01,750
badly to his nation be

407
00:24:01,750 --> 00:24:05,558
alls a everybody either and

408
00:24:05,558 --> 00:24:08,769
specific purpose a interest what very
creative

409
00:24:08,769 --> 00:24:12,509
but not so well-informed legislator

410
00:24:12,509 --> 00:24:15,849
and in so you the last

411
00:24:15,849 --> 00:24:19,709
let's say five years we have seen so
many mobile stations

412
00:24:19,710 --> 00:24:23,319
against against against so we think that

413
00:24:23,319 --> 00:24:28,470
yeses want to have a a reaction bad
legislation but he's much more effective

414
00:24:28,470 --> 00:24:28,900
the

415
00:24:28,900 --> 00:24:31,990
also people to use the Site a nobody

416
00:24:31,990 --> 00:24:35,298
XTS is a be understood us the whole

moline everyone enough I well rights

420
00:24:45,490 --> 00:24:49,538
and so and we would have a deeper and

421
00:24:49,538 --> 00:24:53,190
DVD sandifer Nationals it to achieve
that

422
00:24:53,190 --> 00:24:57,159

452
00:26:56,220 --> 00:27:00,870
ass as a symbol that that screen and in
the published

453
00:27:00,869 --> 00:27:05,329
week space it can be something more
elaborate it like that like a

454
00:27:05,329 --> 00:27:09,939
well at your local library it can be
anything you want you can be given that

455
00:27:09,940 --> 00:27:11,930
spoke during the meeting love with Celia

456
00:27:11,930 --> 00:27:15,240
a it dozen people whether whether a
person's

457
00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:18,450
in it for you and what also

458
00:27:18,450 --> 00:27:22,690
we know that we can know the bottom a
those fighting against

459
00:27:22,690 --> 00:27:25,960
so we have a but it would response a

460
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:29,819
grants and these rapid response plans
have for

461
00:27:29,819 --> 00:27:34,919
it we it have I didn't buy that
sometimes the make some be

462
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:38,779
happened in its own resources especially
in some punches in the levels out so

463
00:27:38,779 --> 00:27:43,299
for example did think about that very
bad surveillance local

464
00:27:43,299 --> 00:27:47,470
last Ian nicaragua so these rapid
response

465
00:27:47,470 --> 00:27:52,029
a which will be open during the whole
give me love activist see

466
00:27:52,029 --> 00:27:55,039
nascent me very bad things happen

467
00:27:55,039 --> 00:27:58,099
and we think that if we it got another
Google

468
00:27:58,099 --> 00:28:01,459
people together and we read the

469
00:28:01,460 --> 00:28:04,960
and it lets in the evening get assure PD
about that

470
00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:09,289
we have a good chance to as she that
their opinion

471
00:28:09,289 --> 00:28:14,019
our site there's decided rights and so
that would be open as well

472
00:28:14,019 --> 00:28:17,869
it would be that would be up in the or
so at my and March

473
00:28:17,869 --> 00:28:21,149
and you will be we may not be too late
for year

474
00:28:21,150 --> 00:28:25,759
and what we will at she but the end of
the year is that very interesting

475
00:28:25,759 --> 00:28:29,339
and when it should have experience we
will see it

476
00:28:29,339 --> 00:28:32,579
and that web it went well

477
00:28:32,579 --> 00:28:36,589
people won't in a specific country with
more intense the

478
00:28:36,589 --> 00:28:41,119
follow-up mechanism and I N O win as a
scene which techniques

479
00:28:41,119 --> 00:28:45,739
I did this for rapid response went their
separate you know of any Burnett

480
00:28:45,740 --> 00:28:50,599
it by adding the collection experiences
from the rapid response plans

481
00:28:50,599 --> 00:28:53,679
and as a wee wee letter from at ways to
engage

00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:58,120
uploader Monique use a in our topics in
our issues

00:30:33,519 --> 00:30:36,660
all the way so they can get involved

511
00:30:36,660 --> 00:30:40,558
wanting right so in thinking about how
can we make

512
00:30:40,558 --> 00:30:43,680
a little show today that would celebrate
the web

513
00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:47,130
I couldn't help but think about Global
Voices

514
00:30:47,130 --> 00:30:50,490
because that's what brings us all
together here

515
00:30:50,490 --> 00:30:55,329
and I think that our community and so
many ways

516
00:30:55,329 --> 00:30:59,000
I mean we couldn't exist we wouldn't
exist without the web

517
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:03,579
but doctor also so many on particular

518
00:31:03,579 --> 00:31:07,699
attributes ovett in when it comes to
access and openness that

519
00:31:07,700 --> 00:31:11,500
allow us to do all the things that we do
like including this

520
00:31:11,500 --> 00:31:16,359
hang out right now I'm so I wanted to
ask

521
00:31:16,359 --> 00:31:19,819
although we're really short on time so
I'm gonna have to asking to be super

522
00:31:19,819 --> 00:31:20,460
presh

523
00:31:20,460 --> 00:31:24,460
but chair you I kinda I said is there
could you talk

524
00:31:24,460 --> 00:31:29,670
a little bit about what with if you look
at Global Voices

525
00:31:29,670 --> 00:31:32,890
answered the way that it's grown-up on

526
00:31:32,890 --> 00:31:37,450
with the Internet you've been here since
the beginning so you can kinda wish

527
00:31:37,450 --> 00:31:40,620
just tell us tell us a bit

528
00:31:40,619 --> 00:31:43,909
okay well I I actually haven't been

529
00:31:43,910 --> 00:31:47,220
where at Global Voices since the very
beginning

530
00:31:47,220 --> 00:31:51,009
but I joined near the start so maybe you
can see on my screen

531
00:31:51,009 --> 00:31:54,019
Global Voices we started actually in
2005

532
00:31:54,019 --> 00:31:57,119
I and one of the great things about the
story

533
00:31:57,119 --> 00:31:59,419
is that it was started

534
00:31:59,420 --> 00:32:02,590
quickly in easily I by ethan Zuckerman

535
00:32:02,589 --> 00:32:05,899
arm who set up the original site I

536
00:32:05,900 --> 00:32:10,070
along with Rebecca MacKinnon who out
worked on the idea content and so

537
00:32:10,069 --> 00:32:13,720
they actually used word press which is
this system we still use today

538
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:18,200
and which is very similar to the web in
a lot of sense is

539
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:23,049
I because it's a distributed project
people all around the world develop it

540
00:32:23,049 --> 00:32:26,210
its open source and it's free and it is
so

541
00:32:26,210 --> 00:32:30,470
not by convenience but by very explicit
philosophy and they're very active in

542
00:32:30,470 --> 00:32:31,350
defending Mac

543
00:32:31,349 --> 00:32:35,240
arm and also in another way I originally

544
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:40,220
I at the time there was a very popular
free software called movable type

545
00:32:40,220 --> 00:32:44,430
which became commercial and instead sign
a paper at people

546
00:32:44,430 --> 00:32:48,400
switch to Word Press I'm so this was our
original website

547
00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:51,650
we later redesigned it several times I

548
00:32:51,650 --> 00:32:55,740
and over the years we have grown with

549
00:32:55,740 --> 00:33:00,730
I Word Press to at take advantage of the
new features

550
00:33:00,730 --> 00:33:06,750
and I keep running our site and sell
running are

551
00:33:06,750 --> 00:33:11,410
our whole infrastructure on this very
decentralized open source model has been

552
00:33:11,410 --> 00:33:14,700
I really rewarding experience for us are
just as

553
00:33:14,700 --> 00:33:18,220
using the web has then obviously I there
what are the most interesting

554
00:33:18,220 --> 00:33:22,430
things is that Global Voices is all
about the web without the web without

555
00:33:22,430 --> 00:33:22,980
that

556
00:33:22,980 --> 00:33:26,539
decentralized of the ship anyone can
write to it there would be no Global

557
00:33:26,539 --> 00:33:27,129
Voices

558
00:33:27,130 --> 00:33:31,430
the whole point in little ways as well
as to recognize that people all over the

559
00:33:31,430 --> 00:33:33,900
world were taking advantage of the
benefits of the web

560
00:33:33,900 --> 00:33:37,630
and create one place where you can find
it sort of like a archie wise

561
00:33:37,630 --> 00:33:41,760
I with GE pre web telnet days

562
00:33:41,759 --> 00:33:44,769
a archive things happening all around

563
00:33:44,769 --> 00:33:47,879
I've got Google Voice is dead arm

564
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:51,120
so yeah no and

565
00:33:51,119 --> 00:33:54,859
you know we've tried a lot of different
infrastructure based around the web over

566
00:33:54,859 --> 00:33:55,589
the years

567
00:33:55,589 --> 00:34:00,259
I we you strip all reviews a lot of
different online service that is

568
00:34:00,259 --> 00:34:01,970
obviously like everyone else

569
00:34:01,970 --> 00:34:05,870
the temptation to take advantage of
Google's free offerings has always been

570
00:34:05,869 --> 00:34:10,159
are part of Global Voices DNA we use
Google mailing lists we use

571
00:34:10,159 --> 00:34:13,349
I all the different things that they
make for free

572
00:34:13,349 --> 00:34:16,809
which is an interesting part of the web
because it's not the web that Google

573
00:34:16,809 --> 00:34:20,518
just happening to give it away but at
the company they have a tendency to

574
00:34:20,518 --> 00:34:22,159
follow the spirit of the web

575
00:34:22,159 --> 00:34:25,190
I even though they're doing so for
commercial reasons

576
00:34:25,190 --> 00:34:29,309
up but yeah that Mike

577
00:34:29,309 --> 00:34:32,659
it very brief summary of the history
always given how to parallel the web

578
00:34:32,659 --> 00:34:38,299
thank you I'm afraid we're gonna have to
wrap up now but

579
00:34:38,300 --> 00:34:41,560
just to do that I wanted to ask for

580
00:34:41,559 --> 00:34:44,980
a couple love kinda final thoughts um

581
00:34:44,980 --> 00:34:49,969
from from Allen and perhaps also Josh
just

582
00:34:49,969 --> 00:34:53,250
I'm Alan I guess I'm I'm especially

583
00:34:53,250 --> 00:34:57,440
interested in if there are kinda
thoughts that you have on all of the

584
00:34:57,440 --> 00:35:01,269
activism and advocacy that's taking
place around

585
00:35:01,269 --> 00:35:04,539
fundamental rights on the internet kinda
from from

586
00:35:04,539 --> 00:35:06,130
your own

587
00:35:06,130 --> 00:35:09,340
unique historical perspective and then

588
00:35:09,340 --> 00:35:13,700
I wanted to close on by asking or not
it's just tell

589
00:35:13,699 --> 00:35:16,939
ass very little bit about Basle

590
00:35:16,940 --> 00:35:21,099
I'm since there's also an important
anniversary this weekend

591
00:35:21,099 --> 00:35:25,440
%uh so I'm gonna just let you guys go
and then we will

592
00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:29,269
close-up won't end well arm

593
00:35:29,269 --> 00:35:33,059
you know I'll I have I haven't been
involved

594
00:35:33,059 --> 00:35:36,889
awesome activists for a for a quite some
time now

595
00:35:36,889 --> 00:35:40,039
year a sort of bernard hogan-howe patrol
biatch

596
00:35:40,039 --> 00:35:44,699
I'll lying around the globe and and at
the mall except maybe the nineties

597
00:35:44,699 --> 00:35:48,759
I but I certainly is its to pay a lot of
attention to that stuff

598
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:52,220
a I am currently in Barbados right now

599
00:35:52,219 --> 00:35:55,299
and down it has been really interesting
to

600
00:35:55,300 --> 00:35:58,950
trying out for one example trying to
access content

601
00:35:58,949 --> 00:36:03,519
from United States om all your
entertainment content action star

602
00:36:03,519 --> 00:36:06,750
and II manual to study read but

603
00:36:06,750 --> 00:36:09,969
a real it but in in practice the

604
00:36:09,969 --> 00:36:14,269
antiquated models I'll %uh of content
distribution

605
00:36:14,269 --> 00:36:18,349
that we are still holding onto om in
this day in age

606
00:36:18,349 --> 00:36:21,480
where no geographical boundaries and
national boundaries not

607
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:25,809
on Sat are still very much at once
entropies business models

608
00:36:25,809 --> 00:36:28,849
a get you know our are not things like

609
00:36:28,849 --> 00:36:32,009
but our internet esta whiten way at it
on

610
00:36:32,010 --> 00:36:35,420
well I see no music industry a seamless
happen now for

611
00:36:35,420 --> 00:36:38,630
ethnic I'm I would certainly from the
actors

612
00:36:38,630 --> 00:36:42,320
on you in terms of keeping the the
Internet I'm freaking

613
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:45,980
and unavailable its are it's going to be
a real challenge I mean it's such a

614
00:36:45,980 --> 00:36:49,699
important technology now and you have
things like a great

615
00:36:49,699 --> 00:36:53,639
wall are the Great Firewall of China
Omni power

616
00:36:53,639 --> 00:36:57,309
you know russia recently as a while
yesterday today

617
00:36:57,309 --> 00:37:02,699
shutting down I'll using got new laws to
shut down access to

618
00:37:02,699 --> 00:37:06,059
guess at I against hooting I'll

619
00:37:06,059 --> 00:37:09,199
you know this getting reelected are I'm

620
00:37:09,199 --> 00:37:12,879
egypt was a real wake-up call for a lot
of people on the use of social

621
00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:13,820
networking

622
00:37:13,820 --> 00:37:17,230
I'll juju organize an activity on

623
00:37:17,230 --> 00:37:20,699
people and bring them up onto the sheets
so governments are scared this

624
00:37:20,699 --> 00:37:21,539
technology

625
00:37:21,539 --> 00:37:24,929
and it's important that we worked really
hard to keep it is

626
00:37:24,929 --> 00:37:28,069
this reason is because they realize that
not for me chin

627
00:37:28,070 --> 00:37:31,720
are you talking to mention you control
the people so I'm

628
00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:35,399
I think it is a strange journey partner
people I

629
00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:39,250
let's just do not want to continue to
work are very hard to you

630
00:37:39,250 --> 00:37:42,730
to stop the battle Austin form below the
Legislature's

631
00:37:42,730 --> 00:37:46,590
summer just another eight rats I mean
you know never ascribe to malice what

632
00:37:46,590 --> 00:37:47,039
will be

633
00:37:47,039 --> 00:37:52,199
ascribed to incompetence and on these
people are just incompetent not not

634
00:37:52,199 --> 00:37:52,909
malicious

635
00:37:52,909 --> 00:37:56,809
I'll but they are people who are
malicious as well so we have to deal

636
00:37:56,809 --> 00:37:57,679
with them as well

637
00:37:57,679 --> 00:38:01,049
but top it's you know it's vitally
important the yes

638
00:38:01,050 --> 00:38:04,420
I nowadays not be these technologies
reset

639
00:38:04,420 --> 00:38:11,420
at the core or culture and the way we
communicate on may

640
00:38:13,190 --> 00:38:17,929
I me others at 10 quickly at

641
00:38:17,929 --> 00:38:21,480
I think that we read in your interesting
moment where

642
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:24,789
so many basic knowledge the

643
00:38:24,789 --> 00:38:28,789
importance on the internet and no
nowhere ands

644
00:38:28,789 --> 00:38:32,920
be impact it's had a on every aspect of
our

645
00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:36,409
culture and and because of that I think
we as the

646
00:38:36,409 --> 00:38:40,199
users at the where into the internet
have

647
00:38:40,199 --> 00:38:44,819
a duty to hold the government

648
00:38:44,820 --> 00:38:49,039
governments around the world in
companies around the world accountable

649
00:38:49,039 --> 00:38:52,219
and to you its

650
00:38:52,219 --> 00:38:56,619
urge them and pressure them to protect
the openness

651
00:38:56,619 --> 00:39:00,799
that lies at the core I'll this entire

652
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:04,210
name and to protect not just openness
but

653
00:39:04,210 --> 00:39:07,269
also this notion 0 comments thats

654
00:39:07,269 --> 00:39:10,989
I in our opinion quickly being lost

655
00:39:10,989 --> 00:39:14,789
this notion that the that the internet
and that the web are

656
00:39:14,789 --> 00:39:17,869
I'll are publicly on and that

657
00:39:17,869 --> 00:39:22,289
it the activity that takes place on them
as activity that we

658
00:39:22,289 --> 00:39:26,199
undertake net me it that is ours and
that is not baby

659
00:39:26,199 --> 00:39:29,519
mean up the big companies on his
platforms

660
00:39:29,519 --> 00:39:32,710
me undertake the activity so for example

661
00:39:32,710 --> 00:39:36,340
google has allowed us to do a lot of
things Google

662
00:39:36,340 --> 00:39:39,460
lost by a lot of information extremely
quickly

663
00:39:39,460 --> 00:39:42,679
to connect to each other extremely well
he is not working at

664
00:39:42,679 --> 00:39:46,449
are doing right now but Google's doing
all this and

665
00:39:46,449 --> 00:39:49,509
at while mining the data to get

666
00:39:49,510 --> 00:39:54,300
selling of that data that data is also
creating this historic all

667
00:39:54,300 --> 00:39:58,340
record up everything then search
warrants a online which has been no

668
00:39:58,340 --> 00:40:02,160
exploited by governments but also by
companies as I think it's time for us to

669
00:40:02,159 --> 00:40:04,379
think about that relationship between us

670
00:40:04,380 --> 00:40:09,210
and these big companies which is
becoming essential part of our

671
00:40:09,210 --> 00:40:14,570
online experience and have to me the
centralized that happen we

672
00:40:14,570 --> 00:40:17,860
decouple ourselves from these giant
companies and take back

673
00:40:17,860 --> 00:40:22,940
or should I wear so that we are all in
this experience in a deeper way and that

674
00:40:22,940 --> 00:40:26,630
it's not and experience is purely
commercial and a commercial transaction

675
00:40:26,630 --> 00:40:27,970
between us and

676
00:40:27,969 --> 00:40:31,799
and if a company so that that's a big
question spent eight years for travel it

677
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:38,800
right solutions but we're hoping that we

734
00:44:15,380 --> 00:44:19,400
think you know the you know just been
saddened but nothing

735
00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:23,030
we have been deeply baffled they the 15
of March

736
00:44:23,030 --> 00:44:27,450
what some things are already starting
today and what we want is that joint

737
00:44:27,449 --> 00:44:28,119
action

738
00:44:28,119 --> 00:44:31,259
a Bleezy mean and

739
00:44:31,260 --> 00:44:35,460
you can be it do remember bottle and not
only battle

740
00:44:35,460 --> 00:44:40,519
but remember Syria because it seems that
because if the new laws media's

741
00:44:40,519 --> 00:44:44,269
it we don't we don't be a hear about
Syria and more

742
00:44:44,269 --> 00:44:48,179
I mean it's is like good in December
been on the popular

743
00:44:48,179 --> 00:44:52,108
and we we will if we got some timely

744
00:44:52,108 --> 00:44:55,819
were OK and something is good but
neither the symbol

745
00:44:55,820 --> 00:44:59,870
have well but then a vote no on the
suffering and together we to

746
00:44:59,869 --> 00:45:03,420
wood bats and I'm not sober system
administrators

747
00:45:03,420 --> 00:45:06,769
computer experts and had a fierce

748
00:45:06,769 --> 00:45:11,050
what I recent so that we only care about
journalists in others lots of people

749
00:45:11,050 --> 00:45:12,300
that somebody will people

750
00:45:12,300 --> 00:45:16,170
for the future Syria and who would
increase in our

751
00:45:16,170 --> 00:45:19,320
what the we need our solidarity

752
00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:22,609
I mean let's elect to even you're
leaving a gun T

753
00:45:22,608 --> 00:45:25,759
air which has received a Syrian refugees

754
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:30,109
you show your solidarity I know that
share on your computer

755
00:45:30,108 --> 00:45:34,569
mind some appealing but maybe go won the
nineteen a computer

756
00:45:34,570 --> 00:45:37,730
with internet access this refugee camp
so they can

757
00:45:37,730 --> 00:45:41,050
stay in touch with their reluctance that
growth may be

758
00:45:41,050 --> 00:45:45,140
do enough to shark tall coach ashore
gathering

759
00:45:45,139 --> 00:45:48,579
your day I think that that there was no
with ways who

760
00:45:48,579 --> 00:45:52,569
help battle because that's what what but
it probably will be between if you must

761
00:45:52,570 --> 00:45:53,559
be

762
00:45:53,559 --> 00:45:56,820
so my feeling is that not forget Syria

763
00:45:56,820 --> 00:46:00,220
not forget that so that free internet if
the

764
00:46:00,219 --> 00:46:03,679
up the internet with the bath and this
year and that's

765
00:46:03,679 --> 00:46:08,529
we might want action what is the web she
wants

766
00:46:08,530 --> 00:46:12,350
where many about on so there is a lot of
work to do

767
00:46:12,349 --> 00:46:16,299
I'm and there are lots of ways to get
involved

768
00:46:16,300 --> 00:46:20,230
