For several hours the besieged leader of the world's most famous insurgent publishing organization and the billionaire head of the world's largest information empire locked horns. The two men debated the political problems faced by society, and the technological solutions engendered by the global network--from the Arab Spring to Bitcoin. They outlined radically opposing perspectives: for Assange, the liberating power of the Internet is based on its freedom and statelessness. For Schmidt, emancipation is at one with US foreign policy objectives and is driven by connecting non-Western countries to American companies and markets. These differences embodied a tug-of-war over the Internet's future that has only gathered force subsequently. When Google Met WikiLeaks presents the story of Assange and Schmidt's encounter. Both fascinating and alarming, it contains an edited transcript of their conversation and extensive, new material, written by Assange specifically for this book, providing the best available summary of his vision for the future of the Internet." -- Publisher's description. 600 10 $a Assange, Julian. 600 10 $a Schmidt, Eric, $d 1955 April 27- 610 20 $a Google (Firm) 610 20 $a WikiLeaks (Organization) 650 0 $a Freedom of information. 650 0 $a Internet $x Access control. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826110212.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F1620EDA6B5611E69AFE1DDBDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
