Copyright vs. Community
by Matt Lee — published Feb 11, 2009 — last modified Mar 16, 2009 03:12 PM — filed under:
Williamsport, Pennsylvania. Lycoming College, AC Room D-001. Copyright developed in the age of the printing press, and was designed to fit with the system of centralized copying imposed by the printing press. But the copyright system does not fit well with computer networks, and only draconian punishments can enforce it. The global corporations that profit from copyright are lobbying for draconian punishments, and to increase their copyright powers, while suppressing public access to technology. But if we seriously hope to serve the only legitimate purpose of copyright--to promote progress, for the benefit of the public--then we must make changes in the other direction. This speech will be accessible to all audiences and the public is encouraged to attend.

El Peligro de las Patentes Informáticas
by Matt Lee — published Jun 05, 2008 — last modified Oct 22, 2008 03:04 PM — filed under:
Lima, Perú. Auditorio de la FISI, Jr. Amezaga S/N. Pabellón de la Facultad de Ingenieria de Sistemas e Informática, Ciudad Universitaria de la Universidad Mayor Nacional de San Marcos. Richard Stallman explicará como las patentes de software obstruyen el desarrollo de software. Las patentes de software son patentes que cubren las ideas del software. Ellas restringen el desarrollo del software, de modo que cada decisión del diseño trae el riesgo de conseguir ser demandado. Las patentes en otros campos restringen fábricas, pero las patentes del software restringen a cada usuario de computadora. La investigación económica demuestra que incluso retardan el progreso. Animamos a todos a venir!
