Fry on the Internet

I love it when someone can say something so profound and in the simplest possible manner, that even dumb-arses like George W. Bush could potentially understand it. Case in point, this gem spoken at Apple’s Regent Street store in London yesterday:

“The internet is like a city - it has red light districts, all kinds of weird people, who want to con and steal from you, but my god, they’re exciting places to live and to be a citizen of it is a great privilege. Yet people are trying to control the internet like they would never dare with a city.”
Stephen Fry, Actor/Presenter/TechEvangelist

With over 100,000 followers, @StephenFry is the 2nd most popular person on Twitter behind US President @BarackObama

I wonder if Stephen Conroy gets it ... yet?

NoCleanFeed and NO Censorship please, Minister!
