  2. The Vancouver Human Rights Lecture — Cute Cats and The Arab Spring

    In the 2011 Vancouver Human Rights Lecture, Ethan Zuckerman, director of the Center for Civic Media at MIT, looks at the "cute cat" theory of internet activism, and how it helps explain the Arab Spring. He discusses how activists around the world are turning to social media tools which are extremely powerful, easy to use and difficult for governments to censor. The Vancouver Human Rights Lecture is co-sponsored by the UBC Continuing Studies, the Laurier Institution, and Yahoo.

  4. Everyone Hates DRM

    The Intellectual Property Colloquium, a podcast for lawyers, has a one-hour show up about the reasons that DRM is the most reviled consumer technology in the market today. It includes interviews with Ed Felten and Randy Picker, testimony from the FTC’s DRM hearings, and is hosted by UCLA Law’s Doug Lichtman. Fascinating listening that makes a good stab at unpicking the tech and the law of DRM.
