"The Uncertain Internet: Core Net Values for the [TBD] Administration"
* Jonathan Zittrain (Professor, Harvard Law School)
* Susan Crawford (Professor, University of Michigan Law School)
* Rich Miner (Mobile Platforms, Google; co-Founder of Android)
* Alec Ross (One Economy; Tech Policy Advisor to Barack Obama)
Thursday, October 9, 6:00 PM
Austin East Classroom, Austin Hall, Harvard Law School
Free and open to the public, no RSVP required.
Now is a critical moment for defining and reinforcing the best
features of our communications platforms. What do we value about the
internet and what should be the focus of the next administration?
This event will be a discussion exploring the Net's benefits and its
increasing vulnerabilities. How do we maintain the network we know,
and anticipate the network it is becoming? What issues emerge in the
era of "cloud computing" and the mobile internet? How do we ensure
broadband for everyone? What can be done to promote open networks
and open devices? Join us for a wide-ranging discussion with leaders
from the legal, technical, and political fields.
