1 LIVING ROOM
2 Maria is at the entrance.
3 Joe is at the window.
5 Door closing is heard quietly.
7 Lounge music starts out funky.
9 JOE (surprised)
10 Hello! I'm glad you stopped by. I'm trying to learn about procom, the new protected communication infrastructure.
12 MARIA (excited)
13 That's great! If you like calling or texting friends and colleagues then you'll be quite interested.
15 JOE (confused)
16 Why is that?
18 MARIA (proud)
19 Procom is designed to put control of your communications back in your own hands. The applications are portable so they run on any device you like. Procom is open source, so you can expect better security and less restrictions on how you and your partners call and text.
21 Maria walks to the window.
23 JOE (hopeful)
24 You mean that if a friend uses Android but I have a different phone, that we can still use the same application?
26 MARIA (excited)
27 Indeed! You can both install the same one or use your favorite applications even if they're different.
29 Crowd gasping is heard quietly.
31 MARIA (surprised)
32 Many companies make it difficult for you to communicate, just so that they can lock you into their closed networks.
34 Music becomes very funky.
36 MARIA (sad)
37 Such applications may be available across a few platforms, but they neglect your freedom and security. In some cases they block your calls from family members using standard technology. In other cases the service restricts or manipulates you.
39 MARIA (angry)
40 In fact, that's how many companies make their money. By convincing you to use so called free software and then helping themselves to personal data from you and your calling partners.
42 Crowd booing is heard quietly.
44 JOE (sad)
45 That's too bad! Now I know why I couldn't send a message using Skype to my boss who uses Whats App. Aren't there any call or text applications that work better than that?
47 Maria walks to the sofa.
49 MARIA (hopeful)
50 There are some good applications, but most fail to adopt open web technology as well as letting you be your own host. Applications using procom can either work with a service provider of your choice or connect to your own network if you know how to host it yourself. And best of all procom is built right from the start with Web RTC.
52 JOE (crazy)
53 What! What is Web RTC?
55 MARIA (proud)
56 Web RTC is a new internet technology that will revolutionize communications just like the world wide web did with our web browsing.
58 Gong is heard quietly.
60 Joe walks to the entrance.
62 JOE (happy)
63 Thanks for informing me about procom. I'll look for applications using procom in my favorite software store or market. Like the Firefox marketplace or the five apps project.
65 MARIA (excited)
66 And don't forget, you're free to download the source code as well. If that's not the best defense against surveillance! Then I don't know what is.
68 Music becomes very soft.
