Hello, fellow anti-DRM activist You're receiving this email because you've organized an event for the International Day Against DRM before, or let me know you were interested in doing so. Sorry about the BCC -- I wish I had time to get in touch with each of you individually, but there are now too many of you for me to do so (a good problem to have!).
2016's International Day Against DRM (IDAD) is coming up on Tues, May 3rd and I'm working on supporting people running events all over. I'm writing to let you know that if you'd like to do an event this year on May 3rd, myself and others are here to support and promote it. Not sure which event to do? You might draw inspiration from the links to previous events of the last four years in the Event Planning Guide [1], like 8-bit music parties, picketing Apple stores, podcast episodes and blog posts, protests outside companies that profit from DRM, flyering sessions, and potlucks, to name a few. And of course there's nothing wrong with repeating last year's if you were happy with it. 1: https://www.defectivebydesign.org/dayagainstdrm#planning If you're interested, the first steps are to A: join the DRM Elimination Crew discussion list [2] (if you haven't already) and B: add the date and your contact information to the LibrePlanet wiki events listing [3]. 2: https://lists.defectivebydesign.org/mailman/listinfo/drm-elimination-crew 3: https://libreplanet.org/wiki/Group:Defective_by_Design/Day_Against_DRM_2016 If you're thinking about it but don't have the time to take it on alone, you might be able to connect with other activists through the discussion list. Don't hesitate to send an email with a request for co-organizers, help creating or translating materials. I'll also track the discussion on the list and look out for opportunities to put people in touch directly. Onward to IDAD, -- Zak Rogoff // Campaigns Manager Free Software Foundation
