Most of geeks know Orwell's 1992 dystopia, in which government is monitoring everyone. Michel Foucault in his great book Discipline and Punish proposed similar, but different set up. Everyone is made to monitor everyone, with result of making the whole world as prison where only limited ways to be can be practiced without punishment. This PyCon case has horrible similarities with loss of freedom in terms of Foucault.

Oh dear Ford, save us from the dystopia of oppression by self-organizing open source communities and their conferences!
How does the world look from the year 2021? Found life on any exoplanets yet?
