09 Jun The Greatest Internet Pioneer You’ve Never Heard Of
This week in cybersecurity from the editors at Cybercrime Magazine
Sausalito, Calif. – Jun. 09, 2025
After watching the documentary “We Live in Public,” a hyperventilated account of the rise and weird fall of the dot-com millionaire turned self-declared artist Josh Harris, you might want to run home, lower all the shades, and unplug yourself from the Internet – The New York Times, Aug. 27, 2009
Ondi Timoner is the director of “We Live In Public,” a 2009 film profiling Josh Harris, “the greatest Internet pioneer you’ve never heard of.” An early dot com entrepreneur, Harris founded Psuedo.com, an early streaming content service.
In 1999, he began an experiment called “Quiet,” in which 100 men and women agreed to give up their privacy to live together under constant video surveillance, so their lives could be streamed online.
Timoner, an internationally acclaimed and award-winning filmmaker, recently joined David Braue on the Cybercrime Magazine Podcast to discuss her work and what inspired the film.
