Back to the BBS: "The Return to Being Online" airs it's third premiere
episode at 8PM UTC/ 12PM PST/ 2PM CST, Saturday 13th March.

This episode of the documentary covers Privacy: why using a BBS might
be a great alternative to using social media etc, in order to protect
your rights to privacy and not have your potentially sold for
advertising and other more nefarious purposes.

It also features a session on BBS messaging: echomail message
forums/groups that are kind of like the facebook groups equivalent on
a BBS. There's also private email messaging, known as 'netmail'. Both
of these are demoed so you can see how to use them.

Finally, it features a short section on how to get your favourite
retro computer, such as a Commodore 64 or Atari on your wifi network,
and on to a BBS, using modern hardware such as the WiModem232!
