@prentoulis #Brexit #WarofWords
'This debate about EU regulations on copyright says quite a lot about the current debate, between those who advocate for creative industries, and the tech giant. As the other side, the Radical side, we have to find the cracks to change the debate'
@prentoulis #WarofWords
Our keynote speaker begins with a discussion of recent copyright reforms in Europe and the transnational movement against them #WarofWords
