Here is a Bloggingheads.tv diavlog between Evgeny Morozov and Ethan Zuckerman on "cyberwar" (and why they hate that term). Also of interest: some of the smartest observations I've heard regarding trying to use social media to understand a situation in a far-off place. About an hour long.
Topics:
- Did North Korea launch a cyber attack on the US? (05:40)
- Evgeny’s brief deployment as a Russian cyber warrior (03:06)
- Is “cyber war” really war? (06:54)
- Debating a solution: engineering vs. education (05:32)
- Why Iran dominated Twitter and the Uighurs didn’t (04:34)
- Are social media inherently liberating? (11:56)
