Karen Sandler's keynote at Linux.conf.au 2012 on the software running inside medical devices such as her own pacemaker-defibrillator. She discusses the difficulty of learning what code runs in life-sustaining devices and why open source matters there.

HN commenters point to it in threads about medical device security and software transparency as an excellent, personal case for open source in implants.
