Go to this event. Knowing more about what's going on in terms of digital rights will scare you, and also encourage you to complain more and to raise your voice against some of the idiot things that the right honourable Michael McDowell et al would like to bring about. Plus, it's only in the Ham so you can go back to the Pav afterwards.
