More From Cory Doctorow

I am worried about this word, this notion - security. i see this word, hear this word, feel this word everywhere. security check. security watch. security clearance. why has all this focus on security made me feel so much more insecure? ... why are we suddenly a nation and a people who strive for security above all else?
Insecure People Focus
For me, privacy and security are really important. we think about it in terms of both: you can't have privacy without security.
Thinking Important Privacy
You have plenty of liberals out there who are all for the cops raiding their political enemies, they're all for the cops doing whatever they have to do to get whatever goods they want on their political enemies. and yet the patriot act comes, oh, you can't do it, it's an invasion of privacy. and yet in some cases they don't care about other people's privacy. privacy is irrelevant to them depending on what the target is.
Political Enemy Care
A child born today will grow up with no conception of privacy at all. they'll never know what it means to have a private moment to themselves an unrecorded, unanalysed thought. and that's a problem because privacy matters, privacy is what allows us to determine who we are and who we want to be.
Children Growing Up Mean
I think what we've had in the past is the government has said, "well, we need to collect the whole haystack." and the haystack is americans' privacy. every americans' privacy. we have to give up all of our privacy.
Giving Up Past Thinking
We have a media that goes along with the government by parroting phrases intended to provoke a certain emotional response - for example, "national security." everyone says "national security" to the point that we now must use the term "national security." but it is not national security that they're concerned with; it is state security. and that's a key distinction.

Similar Quotes
It's hard work making movies. it's like being a doctor: you work long hours, very hard hours, and it's emotional, tense work. if you don't really love it, then it ain't worth it.
Hard Work Emotional Doctors
I think probably i'm quite sentimental; i like big emotional stories, i like being moved by things, but i think i'm very embarrassed by sentiment. i'm very embarrassed by corniness.
Emotional Thinking Stories
There were times where i felt i was pressing a little bit too hard with the humor, and i had to pull back, because the overriding concern of the book was to create this disease that had no cure and make you pay attention to every emotional stage of what happens.
Book Emotional Attention
I always felt like i could be funny, but there was a part of me that always judged actors so harshly... i thought all actors were dumb-that they must have serious emotional problems. even if they don't, that's the perception i had of them. i didn't want anyone to see me that way.
