The Social Impact of Digital Media

By Narveen Aryaputri
In the last 20 years, the computer science technologies have expanded
sufficiently to grasp most of our information media, including music,
movies, and books. Come and join a discussion of the impact of this
assimilation upon copyright law, the political system, and the
entertainment industries. This discussion will include a special focus on
The Pirate Party, Bittorrent, the DMCA, and the value of the public domain.
By Charles Fisher.
Charles has his engineering degree from the University of Iowa and is a published author with books written in the techincal field of computer science. Charles is with Info Systesm at Alcoa and is a resident of Rock Island.
