Talking SOPA with Brian Lehrer

Posted by nancyscola on Jan 18, 2012 in Updates | 0 comments

I’m a huge — huge! — Brian Lehrer fan, so I was thrilled to go on WNYC with him today to discuss the pushback against the Stop Online Piracy Act (aka SOPA) and the Protect IP Act (PIPA).

Also, as seen above, I stopped by the rally today outside the New York City offices of Senators Schumer and Gillibrand, an event organized by the New York Tech Meetup. It was one of the first moments that I can think of where the technology community manifested its politicization in physical form, so you might want to note it on your calendar. Counting crowds is a fool’s game, but if you said that there were a thousand people there, I wouldn’t say that you were lying.
