Jesus. He was spot on. It's almost eerie. That bit about Big Brother getting it wrong was simply prescient - I wonder if a young Cory Doctorow saw this documentary once upon a time, and subconsciously remembered the warnings so that he can repeat them today when they are utterly relevant?
Simply amazing. It's a shame he didn't live to see his predictions come to full fruition.
He was in the BBC TV show Tomorrow's World, in 1967. They were talking about some new computer terminal.
