[kwlug-disc] Tonight: Free screening of "Terms and Conditions May Apply"

[Paul Nijjar]

This is just a quick reminder that WPIRG is holding a free (as in
beer) screening of a movie that may be relevant to those of us
concerned about surveillance. The movie begins at 7pm.

Here is the summary Kalin forwarded: 

*Wednesday, July 30 @ 7pm, Twin Princess Cinema (46 King St. North)*

TERMS AND CONDITIONS MAY APPLY

No one really reads the terms and conditions connected to every website
they visit, phone call they make or app they download. After watching this
provocative exploration of what actually lies between the lines of those
tiny-font agreements, however, you may just hurl your computer out the
window and take to a cave. With fascinating examples, comical gags and
terrifying facts, filmmaker Cullen Hoback investigates what governments and
corporations are doing with your “personal” information. Regardless of
privacy settings, data is being collected and behaviour is being
monitored—as you read this, in fact—leaving the future of civil liberties
uncertain. But are we really living in such a dystopian conspiratorial
world? From whistle blowers and investigative journalists to zombie fan
clubs and Egyptian dissidents, this disquieting exposé demonstrates how
every one of us has incrementally opted into a real-time surveillance
state, click by click.
