Cory Doctorow to speak at Duke

Cory Doctorow is speaking at Duke, 5pm on Thursday, February 22.

Students spend a lot of their time being admonished to protect their privacy on Myspace and Facebook, lest nude pictures and drunken boasts prevent them from one day becoming bank managers and college presidents. But as award-winning science fiction author and Boing-Boing blogger Cory Doctorow will reveal in this talk, the reality of privacy, surveillance and social networks is very different. And much scarier.
