Escape to the City
Episode description
To be honest with you, this final act that's going on in this week's episode and the next really nails home how crushing it can feel to know there could be solutions to the sort of problems we've been experiencing of late. Well, that, and the commentary being made about the ins and outs of copyright and the importance of using that carefully! (Unstartlingly, the author is quite an advocate for Open Source, but it's also got a lot to say about corporations using the DMCA as a bludgeon)
I'm really trying to not have this description come out as dire, but the happy ending is coming in next week's episode! The return to the city is not exactly a joyous omen. I promise, it's a vital part of the story, and really makes the finale coming up super good!
