Regulate Tech #24: 25 Years After Barlow - Is Cyberspace Independent?

Midsummer's Eve episode! In this episode we return to the classics, and one of the texts that has been both praised and ridiculed - John Perry Barlow's Declaration of Independence of Cyberspace from 1996. What has happened since it was written and how has the tech policy space changed -- where was Barlow right and what did he get wrong. Far from dismissing Barlow we try to engage with the text and look at what we can learn from reading classics.
