"10 Rules for Radicals": making PSI more accessible

This pamphlet -- 10 Rules for Radicals -- is the transcript of US rogue archivist Carl Malamud's keynote at the 19th World Wide Web Consortium conference in April 2010. Quoting author Cory Doctorow on boingboing, "It's a thrilling and often hilarious account of his adventures in liberating different kids of information and networks from various bureaucracies in his storied and exciting career."

Carl Malamud is the President and Founder of Public.Resource.Org, author of 8 books, and long-time advocate of public domain in the US. In his speech (also available in video and on Scribd) he provides a detailed guide about how to deal and work with public agencies for making Government and public sector information more accessible and re-usable.

A must-read for anyone interested in the history or future of universal access, open networks and free societies. [01sep10]
