LIVE Now: Pirates Of The Internet

Tubefilter is proud to partner once again with The Caucus for Producers, Writers, & Directors—an alliance of television and new media content creators—to present Pirates of the Internet: Protecting the Rights of Content Creators at the Beverly Hills Hotel on Tuesday, February 28, 2011.

With the recent internet backlash from the Stop Online Piracy Act, a Congressional bill designed to curtail copyright infringement but that also threatens to disrupt the function of the internet, piracy has become a hot button issue as Hollywood tries to make sense of intellectual property rights.

The panel will discuss issues surrounding SOPA (and Senate bill PIPA), and explore “the need for further legislation to protect intellecutal property rights of content creators, as well as other collateral matters in the piracy lair.”
