Interview about EAI and Universal Acceptance Internet

Earlier this year I gave a talk as a UASG Ambassador at the eco talk at the CSA summit in Cologne. We did a video interview which they finally finished editing and put on their web site here.

eco have a little more info their web site at https://www.dotmagazine.online/issues/digital-identities/ipv6/EAI.

The camera angle is a little odd but other than that I think it came out well.
