Pirate Party founder at Stanford tomorrow night



James sez, "Rick Falkvinge, founder of the Swedish Pirate Party, will be giving a talk tomorrow (Tuesday July 31) from 3-4:30 at Stanford's Center for Internet and Society entitled 'Copyright Regime vs. Civil Liberties.' Falkvinge is on a US West coast tour which included a keynote address at OSCON.

"The Swedish Pirate Party strives to reform laws regarding intellectual property, including copyright, patent and the protection of design. The agenda also includes support for a strengthening of the right to privacy (such as private property and private information), both on the Internet and in everyday life." Link (Thanks, James!)
