Download This Show: Buy Drugs off the Web, Hack a New Arm, Kickstarter

Tonight I am a guest on Radio National's new technology show, Download This Show.  Host Marc Fennell chats to me and Claire Connelly, a technology journalist from news.com.au, about buying drugs off the web, hacking a new arm and Kickstarter:

Can you hack a new arm? We meet the man who has hacked Microsoft Kinect to help people who suffer from phantom limb syndrome. We slip into the Dark Web and go shopping on the infamous online pharmacy The Silk Road. Along the way we examine Bitcoin and the world of virtual currencies and whether they truly have a future. Plus how virtual pan-handling can give you one million dollars as we evaluate the world of crowdsourcing and Kickstarter.

Televised Revolution – Episode 222

This week I appeared on the Televised Revolution podcast:

The technological revolution may be responsible for the radical shifts in the way that we consume and interact with content, but the fundamental legal principles that protect consumers and content owners alike are still in place. This was put to the test with the Optus TV Now case in which the NRL, AFL, and Telstra sought an injunction to prevent Optus from continuing to provide the service.

This week on Televised Revolution we chat with Peter Black, Senior Lecturer in Law at the Queensland University of Technology, about the case and its implications on time shifting content.

Also up for discussion:

  • BTjunkie shuts down for good.
  • HBO invests $10 million into streaming service Quickflix.

At Televised Revolution, we look forward to receiving your mail and check us out on the Twitter. You can also find the podcast on iTunes (please leave us a review, it helps people find the show).
