About the Forum 2020
The lines are blurring in digital regulation.
For much of its long history copyright law has been just that – copyright law. But in the wake of developments like the GDPR and the Christchurch Call, it is increasingly hard to keep copyright siloed from other digital rights issues.
At this year’s Forum, we look at the way copyright is influencing, or being influenced by, its neighbours in areas such as free speech, traditional knowledge, surveillance, privacy, and cybersecurity.
