Eben Moglen - Freedom in The Cloud

Out of all the "free software" propaganda that we get out there from the hardcore GNU side, this puts things in a realistic perspective with rational arguments that you do not normally get.

Basicaly Elben Moglen says that many of our freedom/privacy problems (Facebook etc) could be solved by using the web in a decentralised way, as it was intended. The problem is mostly technical: we need small pluggable personnal servers. We already have the hardware (ARMs) but we badly need a software stack for them, and one really easy to use.

one of the most interesting talks I've heard in a while (and it happened to be on Friday night)
