I admit it, every morning and I try to think of new ways to get people to want to download, try and/or buy database tools and developer software. For the first time in my life I am having fun with this, I really am. While looking for some videos to create a promotional spot I came across one of the best scenes (to me) in a movie that was very…well, poignant for the current times. Even back in 1992, whoever wrote this script, they knew their stuff….
The world isn’t run by weapons anymore, or energy or money.
It’s run by ones and zeroes, little bits of data. It’s all just electrons.
There’s a war out there, old friend, a world war.
And it’s not about who’s got the most bullets.
It’s about who controls the information:
…what we see and hear, how we work, what we think.
It’s all about the information.
Though according to IMBD the film was written by Phil Alden Robinson, Lawrence Lasker and Walter F. Parkes.
