2005.02.03 Show Notes

With the kind permission of Phil Becker, I'm pleased to add the 3 Digital ID World panels in which I've participated to the Bag and Baggage podcast. (MP3s: 2002; 2003; 2004) The subject of these talks was digital rights management (2002 and 2003) and trusted computing (2004), and they were expertly moderated by David Weinberger (2002), Cory Doctorow (2003), and Dan Gillmor (2004). It's interesting to track the differences in the DRM discussion between '02 and '03. Here are some of my notes from the trusted computing session:
