    It Cory Doctorow

    He does a lot of work as special advisor for EFF and also know for the invention of the word Enshittification

    He’s very anti-DRM, so much that he doesn’t sell his books on Amazon, because they refuse to sell them DRM free

    He’s always worth a listen, for instance on This week in tech

      Also, he blogs from a high altitude balloon.

      Yeah, I’d rather not if he talks like he writes. Again, I am fully on board with his message, but he writes like someone who doesn’t know how to have a conversation with another person.

        He has an interesting blogging format as he automatically splits his posts and shares them on microblogging instances. That explains the weird staccato prose.

          I’d probably write in a staccato style as well, if I was blogging from a high altitude balloon.
