1. When Antitrust Law Fails: Breaking Up Big Tech with Grassroots Technology (Danny Haidar)
  
  In this presentation, Danny explains why antitrust law has failed to prevent concentration in the technology industry, why Big Tech has been bad for users, and how users can escape Big Tech and build their own network infrastructure. He argues that FreedomBox is poised to change the client-server dynamic in the tech industry while antitrust law catches up. This talk was originally delivered at DebConf 2019 on July 23rd, 2019 in Curitiba, Brazil.
