Let's Win the "War on Sharing"! A Citizen Strategy on ACTA and beyond
In digital era, natural flow of information cannot be controlled by laws or technologies without compromising civil liberties, economic and social development. For that reason, Jérémie Zimmermann and his associates founded an organization four years ago, and called it LaQuadrature du Net - after an unresolvable mathematical problem ‘squaring the circle‘.
His team is engaged in major advocacy of digital rights, with focus on topics such as freedom of speech, copyright, communications control and online privacy, and all for the sake of free flow and distribution of knowledge in the world. Following their action against SOPA / PIPA bills, their current target is ACTA, whereas the campaigns are widely covered by traditional media, which plays a vital role in their current fight for neutrality, and against internet filtering.
Jérémie has been globally recognized as expert in digital rights. Besides, he regularly appears on television programs and discussions, which, we assume, makes him a fine debater.
