The Joy Of Gik

September 26th, 2007 by Daithí | 3 Comments | Filed in Cyberlaw

Last Wednesday’s GikII 2 workshop, sponsored by the AHRC Centre for IT & IP Law up in Edinburgh but held (thanks to Ian Brown: site | blog) at UCL and co-chaired by the inimitable Technollama and Pangloss (or Andres Guadamuz and Lilian Edwards, in the real world), was an awful lot of fun.

I’d like to get around to a proper report, but for now, here are the slides from my presentation, “Im in ur tube blocking ur internets: The Politics, Perception and Parody of Network Neutrality Legislation”. There were many excellent presentations and I look forward to plugging them in the next few days…

Lawyers, legal academics, programmers, business persons, media makers and the occasional stray PhD researcher (like this author) gathered in sponsor Herbert Smith’s London offices on a bright Monday morning this September. The purpose? Facing an ambitious challenge - discussing ‘Law 2.0 ‘, under the patronage of the Society for Computers and Law and the careful watch of conference chair Professor Lilian Edwards (Southampton University).
