La pirateria va més enllà dels delictes o la subversió política. Tal com la Catalina Bracy descriu en aquesta enèrgica xerrada,  pot ser tant una força per al bé com per al mal. Ella fa servir alguns exemples de projectes de mentalitat cívica fets a Honolulu, a Oakland i a Ciutat de Mèxic i presenta convincentment la idea de que tots tenim el que es necessita per a participar.

Per què els bons pirates són bons ciutadans

Hacking is not just for mischief or crime; it is about creatively solving problems and improving systems. In Honolulu, citizens answered wild pig questions during a write-a-thon and helped rewrite their city’s website, making government more accessible. Similar grassroots efforts in Oakland and Mexico City show how ordinary people can use innovation and collaboration to participate in building better communities. When people contribute small acts of civic hacking, they reenergize citizenship and restore trust in public institutions.
