Chatting With Andrew K'Tetch Norton About 'No Safe Harbors'; The Techdirt Book Club Interview

from the join-in dept

As promised, around noon today, we'll be doing a live chat with Andrew "K'tetch" Norton, who assembled No Safe Harbor, the book of essays about issues related to the Pirate Party. We'll be broadcasting the video live -- it should show up below this paragraph around noon, and should run about half an hour. We'll be chatting about Andrew, about the Pirate Party, about the book (and its upcoming sequel), as well as a variety of issues covered by the book. Please come join us for the live interview, or check out the recording after we're done.

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

–The Techdirt Team

    Care to comment on the subject matte.... oh wait, you are not capable. NVM, sorry I assumed you were not a total fukwit. Does if feel good to know that you are on par with this fellow?

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/panorama/hi/front_page/newsid_9693000/9693594.stm skip to 1:30 or so.

    I feel bad for the AC. It must be lonely at the bottom of the food chain.

    This posted like eight hours ago and it appears that not a single person- including you thought enough of the subject matter to bother commenting. Kind of validates my initial question, don't you think?

    Re: Re: Re:

    Nope, just too busy helping folks get paid and not get dicked by hollywrong in the process to watch the video in it's entirety.

    And as usual, the AC's spew random hatred with zero facts or even bothering to comment on the subject at hand.

    So, you don't like the fellow that was interviewed. This has nothing to do with anything, let alone the subject matter.

    I am merely illuminating that fact. If you don't like it you are free to take your ball and go home.

    Some of us do actually work from time to time.

    No, not really.

    So, care to comment on the subject matter yet,
    Or don't YOU think ?

    For me, as apparently for every other reader of Techdirt (including you) today, the piece was abysmal and unworthy of comment.

    Re: Re: Re:

    If you're not interested in what someone else is talking about, why does that automatically make that person a zero?

    I don't think you're interesting and it took me a few hours to notice this discussion going on - that makes you a zero!

    I find it quite telling that he's so threatening to you and your world view that the best you can do is come up with an ad hominem.

    Either that, OR all the readers agreed with it so much that they didn't have anything left to comment. Or people don't have a huge amount of time for a 30 minute video.
