"Cory Doctorow is a prolific writer and a brilliant science fiction novelist,
journalist and technology activist. He is a special consultant to the
Electronic Frontier Foundation (eff.org), a non-profit civil liberties group
that defends freedom in technology law, policy, standards and treaties. His
most recent book is Chokepoint Capitalism
(co-authored with Rebecca Giblin), a powerful expose of how tech monopolies
have stifled creative labour markets and how movements might fight back. Nick
Buxton, editor of TNI’s State of Power report and Shaun Matsheza, host of the
State of Power podcast, chatted to Cory in the wake of floods in his hometown
of Burbank, California. This is an edited excerpt of the interview."
