Good Magazine: “In late 2008, a multi-million dollar Bureau of Land Management land auction–one that was set to turn over hundreds of thousands of acres of public lands in southern Utah to oil and gas companies–was disrupted by a quiet, 27-year old economics student who simply walked in and started bidding. Today, Tim DeChristopher, aka Bidder70 is facing two felony charges for this act of civil disobedience. We spoke with DeChristopher about his motivation and whether he thinks it was all worth it.”
