Max Keiser’s show on Russian Television, and his justified rants against ‘financial terrorism’, are always quite entertaining.

In these two episodes, he interviews free speech activist, digital rights advocate, and p2p-oriented science-fiction author Cory Doctorow. Well worth spending your time on.

In part one, the interview starts at 25 minutes in the video and discusses attacks on the freedom to share by the copyright monopolies, using undemocratic forums such as ACTA. (but watch the whole thing to get a sense of the Max Keiser reports).

In part two, Cory Doctorow takes on topics such as sock puppetry (the plan of the U.S. Army to create an army of avatars to disrupt the online public sphere) and virtual currencies
