Because this year we are speechless. 22 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:28,071 Our mind is empty. 23 00:05:29,333 --> 00:05:32,740 There was no message that was strong enough 24 00:05:32,740 --> 00:05:37,365 and that was describing what was actually going on inside us. 25 00:05:37,365 --> 00:05:42,201 Nobody came up with something. 26 00:05:42,201 --> 00:05:45,507 So there is no motto. 27 00:05:45,507 --> 00:05:49,968 Because we found ourselves waking up. 28 00:05:49,968 --> 00:05:53,402 Waking up from a bad dream. 29 00:05:53,402 --> 00:05:59,701 Waking up from the bad dream to a reality that was even worse. 30 00:05:59,701 --> 00:06:03,966 And a reality that can no longer be ignored. 31 00:06:03,966 --> 00:06:08,454 We woke up into "Hollywood Reality", 32 00:06:08,454 --> 00:06:14,553 you know where an agent on TV puts your soul up on screen 33 00:06:14,553 --> 00:06:20,759 with a few clicks and no apparent skills involved. 34 00:06:20,759 --> 00:06:26,419 And usually we have been laughing a lot when this happens. 35 00:06:28,573 --> 00:06:33,167 But this year we stopped laughing. It's not funny. 36 00:06:36,906 --> 00:06:43,828 Because this agent, this is an digital Agent Orange. 37 00:06:45,152 --> 00:06:51,865 This agent came and took the leaves from the forest where we used to live and flourish. 38 00:06:51,865 --> 00:06:59,014 The forest that feeds us. The forest that brings value to our lives. 39 00:07:00,610 --> 00:07:06,339 That allows us to learn, to evolve and to have fun. 40 00:07:09,970 --> 00:07:12,664 So what shall we do now? 41 00:07:12,664 --> 00:07:16,730 How can we deal with this situation? 42 00:07:16,730 --> 00:07:21,319 Is there anything left to do or is it just "Game Over"? 43 00:07:21,319 --> 00:07:26,788 Shall we just give the money back to the shareholders and quit? 44 00:07:26,788 --> 00:07:31,517 Can we rewind history and start over from scratch? 45 00:07:31,517 --> 00:07:38,406 Probably not. We have embarked on a trend that looks irreversible. 46 00:07:40,345 --> 00:07:47,634 But let's rewind a bit nevertheless. Let's look back in time. 47 00:07:47,634 --> 00:07:57,601 So 1984 was not only the first year when this congress came to life, it was also a tale, a scary tale. 48 00:07:58,878 --> 00:08:03,248 But as it turned out not a fairy tale. 49 00:08:04,510 --> 00:08:09,454 And we told the world that this was not an instruction manual, you know. 50 00:08:09,454 --> 00:08:14,656 But something to be aware of. But nobody listened. 51 00:08:16,272 --> 00:08:23,139 But also in 1984 we came together as a community, as a group of like minded people, 52 00:08:23,139 --> 00:08:27,904 that shared knowledge and discussed the future. 53 00:08:27,904 --> 00:08:33,836 We saw the risks but we also saw the chances, and we still do. 54 00:08:33,836 --> 00:08:39,216 And because the best way to predict the future is to invent it, 55 00:08:39,216 --> 00:08:46,831 the hackers formed the net based on their core principles: trust and friendship. 56 00:08:47,831 --> 00:08:56,658 Turns out this was not enough. So now it's 2013. 57 00:08:56,658 --> 00:09:03,962 We are way ahead in the 21st century that was once the glorious future we were all longing for. 58 00:09:03,962 --> 00:09:11,133 But now it all seems so broken and so useless. 59 00:09:11,133 --> 00:09:17,496 What we need to do now? We have to reinvent the net. 60 00:09:18,666 --> 00:09:21,202 We have to rethink the net. 61 00:09:21,202 --> 00:09:30,361 We need to redesign our forest so that we can still live in harmony, but we are also save from the predators. 62 00:09:30,361 --> 00:09:35,403 What we need is a New Standards Alliance. 63 00:09:36,511 --> 00:09:45,651 A force so strong, that it can at least slow the pace of global surveillance to get some control back. 64 00:09:45,651 --> 00:09:52,707 You can do it. And you can start here. 65 00:09:54,523 --> 00:09:57,754 Right here, right now. 66 00:09:59,185 --> 00:10:04,290 And your conscience matters! 67 00:10:04,290 --> 00:10:08,400 Always do what your heart tells you. 68 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:11,135 Do not follow the money. 69 00:10:11,135 --> 00:10:17,291 If there's one thing we've learned from this lost year it's that each of us can make a difference. 70 00:10:17,291 --> 00:10:23,533 One person can start a wave that can't be stopped. 71 00:10:23,533 --> 00:10:28,840 Oh and by the way we have an appointment. 72 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,856 We have an appointment to make. 73 00:10:31,856 --> 00:10:38,786 To make it easier for all of you, to move quickly and without fear 74 00:10:38,786 --> 00:10:47,250 I hereby declare you being genuine and authorized popes. 75 00:10:47,250 --> 00:10:51,450 *laughter and applause* 76 00:10:51,450 --> 00:11:00,812 And as a pope is someone who is not under the authority of the authorities, you should do well now. 77 00:11:00,812 --> 00:11:06,293 So protected from all the evil in the world I leave you and thank you again for being awesome 78 00:11:06,293 --> 00:11:11,500 and for wanting to be a part of the solution. 79 00:11:11,500 --> 00:11:17,309 "Carpe Noctem", use the night, have fun and let's save the world! 80 00:11:17,309 --> 00:11:22,582 *applause*
