Hi! "Join us for an enlightening and provocative evening as we explore the Internet’s double-edged sword: its ability to spread knowledge and democracy and its potential risk to civil liberties and personal freedoms. This exciting evening will feature prominent speakers with diverse viewpoints on the impact the Internet has had on business, entertainment, and our society at large. Speakers include: Larry Sonsini ’66, chairman of Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati; Rick Finkelstein ’78, vice chairman and COO of Universal Pictures; whurley, co-founder of Chaotic Moon; Jeremy Howard, president & chief scientist of Kaggle; and John Riccitiello, private investor, prior CEO of Electronic Arts." http://events.berkeley.edu/index.php/calendar/sn/citris.html?event_ID=69189… Mitar -- http://mitar.tnode.com/ https://twitter.com/mitar_m

Hi! Ups. Haven't seen that there is a ticket price. But we should be concerned with such events. Sometimes they can be propaganda for some particular point of view. Mitar

All speakers are uber-capitalists..I actually do really want to hear their rhetoric, but then tix are $25? On its face, the whole event seems like a case study for why SUDO Room / BAPS is so necessary -d On Monday, September 9, 2013, Mitar wrote:

Hi! I know. That's why I sent it. I thought we should organize and go. But then I saw the price. Maybe the price is exactly to keep people like us out of the picture. ;-) So definitely such events are super educational. Mitar

I am totally down and fully agree we need to hear their framing so we know how to tweak it..as their 'utopia' in this realm is prolly not so far away from our dystopia Definitely would watch it..did anyone find out if its being recorded? I'm even tempted to go and see if they'll let me in anyway (as an alum maybe..? who knows). On Monday, September 9, 2013, Mitar wrote:
