Cory Doctorow on copyright, corporations and creativity. Part 2

In this fascinating Meanland lecture at Melbourne Writers Festival, Cory Doctorow explains how the digital world is shaped by corporations enforcing digital rights management regimes.

So while the internet and digital technology is challenging traditional notions of copyright, the new world emerging is not necessarily one that’s better for artistic creators.
