Internet Rights Updating society for the Information Age
Paul Mobbs
Sunday 4th August, 2002
6.30pm, Comlab
Paul Mobbs will talk through the issues surrounding our rights - or rather the lack of any rights - to access and use networks for communications and organising socially.
He'll provide an update on current legislative changes and the possibilities of people getting involved to lobby for digital rights - e.g. the new Communications Bill.
Finally he'll also talk about the role of free software in Internet rights and mention some specific community initiatives such as the 'Community-Linux Training Centre'
