Shotlist: Webcast of a panel discussion about digital rights at Glasgow Caledonian University, featuring Patrick Harvie, Green MSP, Alistair Davidson, director of the Centre for Technology and Society and blogger Mhairi McAlpine.

How could an independent Scotland help to promote our digital rights? Has Britain failed to protect them?
