Two stills from a superb documentary about my pal Aaron Swartz, whose death started me blogging in January 2013. The photo shows Aaron celebrating the victory over the passage of SOPA legislation. Scroll down to watch the entire movie.
I’ve made a few double postings in this time of transition from my Boring from Within blog. Henceforth all my agitprop images will be posted over there, so please sign up if if you’re interested. I’ve started adding ©© (creative commons) symbols to these pieces to encourage folks to spread the word, and help raise consciousness about threats to freedom of speech and action. The Russian state’s reaction to Pussy Riot’s harmless church prank–separating two of the perpetrators from their children to place them in labour camps and clamping down on any mention of the band–is chilling to say the least.
I concocted this bit of agitprop after reading an important op-ed detailing the US gov’s troubling War on Reality. The article contextualizes this proposal outlining the very naughty tactics of Team Themis, a consortium of information security firms enlisted by the government at arm’s length. Further details on the Hammond debacle here.
