Movies. Music. Books. You buy it; you own it. That's how it used to
be. Now the DMCA and expanded copyright laws are helping Hollywood
change all that. Come and hear the EFF attorneys talk about the state
of the battlegrounds that affect your rights.

EFF attorneys will tackle thorny issues during this interactive
discussion, such as the impact on science and research from the DMCA's
broad ban on technical information, its effect on encryption and
computer security, Constitutional challenges in court and possible
legislative actions, international concerns, and the role of fair use
in the digital age.
