Father was a well known WY politician and rancher
Lifelong conservative hippy
Wrote lyrics for the Grateful Dead
Took over his father’s cattle ranch
Mentored a teenage JFK Jr and remained friends with him
Helped Dick Cheney early in his political career before realizing he was a neocon piece of shit
Founded Electronic Frontier Foundation which was an early internet freedom group
Helped draft initial internet bill of rights
Supported early hackers who ran afoul of the FBI
Rubbed elbows with all the early Silicon Valley guys- Jobs, Gates etc
Just read Barlow’s autobiography. Guy had quite the interesting life
Any bullet points for us fren?

Wow! Thanks for this!
One of my wife's early bosses hung out with the guy at his Wyoming ranch.
