Recently, @pluralistic spoke at #WEDF2022 explaining how 40 years of copyright expansion has not been delivered. Even though copyright covers more works, for longer timescales, with stiffer penalties, the share of income from the creative industries that goes to creators has only declined. He argues that labour markets can be made more fair by using data about hidden wage-thefts and accounting fraud to galvanise collective action among creative workers.

We were honoured to be joined at #WEDF2022 by Director of News at the Democratic Voice of Burma, Than Win Htut. The coup, ensuing violence and oppression in Myanmar since 2021 has been drastically under-covered around the world…

We hope you will be able to join us February 1st, on the two years anniversary of the coup, to learn more about the situation. Before next week, however, we encourage you to hear his words and, as always, to ask any questions you may have below.

Following her Panel at #WEDF2022, arranged by Pen America's Artists at Risk, Emma Shapiro, has written brilliantly for Hyperallergic about the importance of artistic and personal freedom. Read the full article here:

Emma's panel, called "Block, Mute, Report", discussed the vital place of art in civilisation — something which as editor-at-large of the Don't Delete Art Campaign, she is fighting for every day.

Artistic Freedom Reaches “Lowest Point” in Years, Human Rights Advocates Warn

Rising traditionalism, conservatism, and populism have resulted in major discrimination against women and the LGBTQIA+ artistic community.

My session with @thepacketrat @jfslowik and @CynthiaBrumfield was just posted from the World Ethical Data Forum. We chatted about critical infrastructure and the cyberattacks challenging it. They were my hand-picked dream team on the topic. If you're bored...

We're SUPER excited to have some talks and a panel discussion lined up at #WEDF2022 over the next few days.

There are no paywalls, no cap on attendance and the event will be run on open source, interoperable, decentralised and privacy-respecting infrastructure.

It really bugs me that I e-mailed World Ethical Data Forum and told them about the dangerous flashing animations on their start page...

and they didn't even respond. Much less remove the troubling content.
