Berkeley Cybersalon: Rewriting Copyright with the Swedish Pirate Party
Sunday July 29, 2007 from 5:00pm - 7:00pm
The Hillside Club
2286 Cedar St.
Berkeley, California 94709 Get Directions
All too often, today's copyright law fails to serve the public interest. In this discussion, Rick Falkvinge of the Swedish Pirate Party joins us to examine some new approaches to copyright, challenging some of the fundamental (and unexamined) assumptions about "intellectual property." We'll look at how both creativity and civil liberties are often stymied by the current system, and highlight some genuinely new proposals for change.
