74:35 and the open source movement is a great example of this.
74:38 but, it's not limited to programming.
74:41 it's politics. it's the way we live, it's the way we talk to our friends
74:44 it's the way we talk to our enemies. we have the ability to build
74:48 a better, more equal, more fair, and more just society for
74:51 everybody. And advance of technology is very dangerous and destabilizing thing,
74:55 when we don't think about the way this has been before. when we think about the increase in roboticization of the workforce
75:02 the fact we have young people who have tremendous
75:06 student debt that they're never going to be able to get rid of that's not dischargeable through bankruptcy proceedings (thanks, government, for that one) um,
75:16 we have new class that are indentured servants; in a very new and modern way that's very corrosive to the sort of egalitarian ideals that we as Americans aspire to uphold.
75:31 and if we don't take chances, if we don't take risks to push back and say, look
75:37 we have a place in this society, we have a place in this world, and if
75:41 you guys, you government, are not gonna represent the public's interest
75:45 if you're gonna represent your own interests, if you are gonna represent elite interests
75:49 if you are gonna represent class interests exclusively, to the detriment
75:55 of the electorate that put you in that seat
75:59 we are going to rebuild a new society around you
76:03 and thanks to the same technology that screwed us
76:06 in many ways, we are now empowered in new ways
76:10 you know when we when we talk about all of these things, when we talk about mass
76:14 surveillance, when we talk about the fact that you know, we've got these famous
76:18 inquisitors in history that said "give me six lines written by the hand of the most honest man, and I'll find something within them to hang him with"
76:25 you know, we're not talking about inquisitions from medieval times were talking about Keith Alexander
76:31 you know, and its up to us to change that because we can revoke
76:35 that permission from them. we can try democratically, but if they say no,
76:40 if they say, we're gonna exclude you from that debate,
76:43 if we're going to exclude you from those discussions, if we're gonna
76:47 play games like they're doing the UK when the passed
76:50 an extraordinary expansion of surveillance powers, just last week
76:54 under the guise of an emergency law, when they've been ignoring the emergency for the last year; um, we have not just
77:03 the capability, but we have an obligation to push back against that
77:10 and to create the society that we want.
