"I'm deliberately trying to provoke a response and trying to get people to be critical of the internet, critical of technology and critical of the promise that is always imbedded in any new technology"

He owns and operates the consulting firm Openflows Networks Ltd., which specializes in using open source intelligence to develop internet strategies. Educated at the McLuhan Program at the University of Toronto, his passion is educating people on the potential benefits and perils of technology. (Recorded on August 13th, 2008)
