Hello folks, I wanted to share an event at NYLS with those of you who are in the NYC or surrounding area: *When Activism Goes Online: Anonymous, Hacktivism and the Law* (See details below). If you want to go to the event, please RSVP to Naomi Allen at [email protected] by March 22, 2013.
Students for Free Culture afterwards at local favorites, Puffy's Tavern. :) *-- * *When Activism Goes Online: Anonymous, Hacktivism and the Law* Wednesday April 3, 2013 New York Law School 185 West Broadway, Room W420 6:00pm- 8:30 pm There has been a lot of talk about issues involving hacktivism and the use of technology in activism, but where do you draw the line between activism and criminal activity? This event will discuss: Who is Anonymous? What have they done? How is online activism different than offline activism? How have the law and cases treated the two differently? Is hacktivism a criminal activity or an exercise of political speech? Join us and learn what you need to know about hacktivism and your rights. Panelists include: · *Kenneth C. Citarella*, Adjunct Professor at New York Law School, Managing Director of Investigations at Guidepost Solutions LLC and former Westchester criminal prosecutor specializing in computer crime · *Abi Hassen*, Mass Defense Coordinator with the National Lawyers Guild · *Gráinne O’Neill*, Attorney specializing in the intersection of law and technology Light refreshments and pizza will be served. Co-sponsored by Institute for Information Law and Policy, National Lawyers Guild, and Students for Free Culture.
