It's something that we went through and a lot of our customers go through as well. Demo request. It was about three times higher.
that's a core business opportunity. But if you think there's a real business there, then wouldn't you want to control it? And I just felt given the demographic of the early adapters, which was a great Playboy demo , given the success in TV, that bringing the world of Playboy online was something we ought to try and do. And Jim said to me, this is in like 1992, maybe early
and it needs to evolve again. I want us to think about democracy in phases. Democracy 1.0 is that initial idea. That the people should have the power in a political system, not kings,
billionaires and reality TV stars or sometimes both. Democracy means that the kids of house cleaners and mechanics have the same opportunities in life as the kids of lawyers and tech execs.

AND AND democracy 3.0 means that just like voters should have equal voice and power, workers should have equal voice and power. And democracy at work means
We have a moral and practical imperative to future-proof democracy by helping each other. By delivering real political voice and real
It's not good for any of us. Democracy contains within it the tools for its own demise but also its renewal.

to more and more of us. Democracy 3.0 can make the pursuit of happiness possible for all. Thank you.
midterms and that's not going to be easy to run on the back of. So, I mean, I I would rather be running right now as a Democrat for 2028 than as a Republican, but that's a long way away and things can change. We don't know where the economy's going to be, we don't know what AI is going to look like, we don't know what the geopolitical space is
Hi, I'm Neil Fringlass. I'm the chief marketing officer at Visit Philadelphia and I believe the success of democracy is up to all of us participating. Anush Gupta, president of the welcoming center and I believe democracy can still work.
But under this system, regardless of how our data is used, the surveillance itself undermines core principles of democracy so foundational that we wrote them into the Bill of Rights. Freedom of speech which is chilled under profiling and the destruction of anonymity.
Hi, I'm Jen Golbeck. I'm a computer scientist and an AI ethicist and I think people need to hold power for democracy to work. My name is Shalini Kantayya. I'm a documentary filmmaker and a TED fellow and I make films about how technology impacts our humanity.
that way, but the bottom line is these people that get up to the top positions of power, Donald Trump accepted because he's not part of that system, but these are people who didn't demonstrate fantastic leadership skills. They didn't demonstrate the ability to work across the aisle. They didn't demonstrate the ability to come up with really unique and groundbreaking and interesting legislation. They were fundraisers. And so I feel like when you look at the leadership now and you say, well, why aren't they pushing harder against the executive branch, for example?
slavery. I mean, absolutely no problem with the institution of slavery. There would be more problems among Republicans, especially with extension of slavery, although many Democrats, white Democrats in the North were against that as well. The white South was overwhelmingly in favor of slavery. You often read the argument, the kind of neo-Confederate argument that they'll talk about how most Confederate soldiers didn't own slaves. That's true.
Other times, the people come out 'cause they hate the emperor, and they drag the emperor out and cut his nose off or democracy in the modern day is that the people somehow have a connection to who leads and how they lead, and this is, the Hippodrome was that connection between the people and the leaders.
Other times, the people come out 'cause they hate the emperor, and they drag the emperor out and cut his nose off or democracy, like- ... ancient Athenian democracy, which is a whole other thing. But you're right.
It's tools like FFmpeg that democratize this. The podcast and streaming revolution, the YouTube revolution- was caused. You know, FFmpeg was a big player in that because it democratized this technology that was once in the nineties, for example, you needed equipment that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to do compression. It was the size of a car, and now everybody has that at almost an exact level playing field, and that's something that's so remarkable.
demonstrating it. - Yeah, I've been in a bunch of those meetings. It's just, it's fun to watch, 'cause really, not enough
demonstration, if it's a peaceful debate, we can't do this. It would be political censorship. We protected freedom of speech in
- Democrats still think the currency of politics is money, and the currency of politics is attention.
Democrats, Senate Democrats decided to vote for the continuing resolution, avoiding a shutdown, or a critical mass of them then.
Democratic leadership isn't even united on the single biggest point of leverage they might have had.
Democrats happened to be in power, and as a result, they got the brunt of it.
Democrats, most Democrats still live in a world, where the thing that they're optimizing for and attention is to not get negative attention.
Democrats feel like they get trashed in 2024, and in a way they did, but Trump's popular vote victory was the smallest popular vote victory since 2000,
