I think one of the key points here is 43.4 minutes in where Vint Cerf talks about the dependencies that we are creating that we will find harrowing in their loss - "You assume that it's there and you only react badly when it isn't." "Can we build more resilience into the system." I guess one thing on everyone's mind is addressing our level of vulnerability.
Jesus - I think this guy walked up to me on the street in Dublin night circa 2000 - is that possible? Rathgar road - was that you Vince? He told me he had invented an internet protocol and I was a database programmer at the time and I just thought he was a flake. He seemed very keen to get me to go for a coffee and I though he was either a fruit or a serial killer. The father of the Internet ... and I thought he was a loon. "Internet protocol my ass ..." I thought .... holy shit.
