Nick Moffitt Interview · Slashdot Mirror

Swedish hacker-wannabee writes "Nick Moffitt is in an interesting interview at Gnuheter. Moffitt: 'I want to see a future where when I buy something, I own it. I don't want corporations and governments telling me how I may or may not use my own private property in my own home or among my friends. I want the ability to take apart my toaster or my alarm clock and see how they work, or combine them into something new. I don't think this future is possible without some serious effort on the part of hackers.'"

What Scares me by Medevo · 2002-07-19 05:52 · Score: 4, Funny

What scares me is what is he going to do when he combines that toaster and alarm clock.

Are we going to get toast at 6:00am every day or an Alarm that burns your head if you do not turn it off quick?
