“at least it has an ending”

posted in politics, slush by Alec on June 24th, 2008 :

From Cory Doctorow’s talk at GoogleNYC, talking about his book, Little Brother:

“[…] who discover, after a terrorist attack on the Bay Area, that destroys the Bay Bridge, that in fact that as bad and terrifying a terrorist attack is, it at least has an ending. Whereas the police response to a terrorist attack has no graceful ending, it continues unbounded, and has a natural inertia that causes it to grow and grow and grow. In the name of security, all things are possible.
