As we know The Digital Economy Act entered into force on June 12th, 2010 and affects us all. How the Act will work in practice is another question. The law has not been tested as yet. Glyn will be talking about the potential effects of the Act and what we can do to change of future of online media control.
So, to summarise:
18:30 – 20:30 at Antenna, Nottingham
Speaker: Glyn Wintle: Keeping Rights Open
Q&A: topics raised
It will be great. Bring along the dinosaurs so that something may get done about this awful act that went through washup because the dark lord said it had to and the whips obliged, herding the sheep through the doors of history…
Sounds like is going to be a interesting and heated Nott Tuesday from your comment Chris!
the dark lord won the internet villain of the year award at the ISPAs last night. Very good choice.
(Tom Watson won internet hero, again a good choice)
