Why You Should Care About the Future of Computing


Listen Later

Your physical world is governed by many laws and regulations that protect your freedom and privacy. Why should the digital world be any different? Todd Weaver, CEO and Found of Purism, explains how Big Tech managed to write the rules for the digital world and why those rules are at odds with your freedom, security and privacy. But it doesn’t have to be this way. As citizens, we can force those representing us to protect our digital civil rights. As consumers, we have options for computers and smartphones you can buy right now that will assert your digital civil rights.

Serial entrepreneur and successful businessman, Todd has been recognized for his visionary strategy, technical leadership, and relentless drive, with more than 20 years of entrepreneurial experience, using, installing, and promoting Free Software. Todd has consistently predicted market directions and executed disruptive technologies in a wide range of industries, including in-store entertainment, collaborative financial solutions, and starting the first online cable company. Todd has a deep understanding of the hardware manufacturing process, and an unwavering belief for users to retain their essential freedoms via free software, making Purism (the marriage of high quality hardware and free software), his most ambitious, disruptive, and exciting venture yet.
