Comments on: Govt doesn’t trust “internet companies”, says Conroy http://delimiter.com.au/2010/07/09/govt-doesnt-trust-internet-companies-says-conroy/ Just Australia. Just technology.

Power point had crashed at the start of the press event and it went downhill from there. The presentation was eventually shown but then she had a hard time turning the computer and projector off. At one stage Quigley looked like Dr Manhattan. Quigley didn't even bat an eyelid while bright light was streaming into his eyes. Impressive. I have a lot of respect for Quigley.

I had a boss an age ago who hated tech ever since the day he found out that his then wife was making raunchy vid cam footage for a website. I agree.

The companies hold too much data on us and feel as though they can do with this as they please.

We're planning to publish a bloopers reel later on. For more detail you can ask @nanopunk about it on Twitter -- she was there.
