Summary: The potent and immediate threat to people’s lives has grown greater with the advance of the latest awful British legislation, which may in turn jeopardise Free software because it’s harder to mandate/impose back doors on Free software users

THE latest episode of The Cyber|Show was published earlier this month. It covered what mobile (cellular) phones actually are, what social control networks do to people, and it debated back doors.

“Andy’s articles have done a spectacular job explaining the issues.”

When we started mentioning the show it was because of one of the hosts (Andy), who contributed some articles to Techrights while he still worked at a university. Now he spends his time writing and talking about important issues, including Software Freedom.
