Interview With Audacia Ray
Wired’s Regina Lynn has an interview with Audacia Ray about Naked on the Internet here.
I liked this quote:
I did an appearance on the Geraldo at Large show in March. In the interview, they asked, “And how is this dangerous?” at least six different times. That’s a question rooted in crazy technophobia that’s all put off on the internet. My response is that meeting people is dangerous. But what’s the definition of danger? Do you mean is it likely you’ll get ax-murdered or raped? Probably not. But are you going to have a weird experience? Get an STD? Break your heart? Danger on that scale is realistic — but not necessarily tied to the internet.
I’ve been on the net for so long that the idea of it being “dangerous” seems bizarre, yet clearly it’s something that’s real for a lot of people.
