Whether you’re a content creator, publisher or just have an interest in the future of the internet, it’s well worth checking out the ORGCon 2012 event on March 24, 2012, which is organised by the Open Rights Group to cover everything around digital rights.
Not only is it an important topic, but they’ve also got an impressive line-up of speakers (including Cory Doctorow and Lawrence Lessig, Google UK’s Manager Theo Bertram and Mozilla Privacy Expert Tom Lowenthal amongst many others), panelists (it’ll be interesting seeing the likes of Bill Thompson debating copyright enforcement), and some workshops and other stuff. You can see the full programme on the ORG site.
It’s £26 if you’re a non-member of ORG, and free if you sign up to support ORG now. So it’s a cheap way to see some very intelligent people on very important topics even if you’re not planning on becoming more involved with the Open Rights Group. Then again, if you’re not considering it following on from SOPA,PIPA,ACTA etc…
I’ve bought a ticket, so if you do plan on going, let me know as it’d be great to grab a drink either during the day or in a pub afterwards.
