The Media Wonk will be hosting the first Digital Breakfast DC conference on Oct. 1 in, not surprisingly, Washington, DC. The topic for the panel is Using Tech to Safeguard Content and IP. Panelists include Rick Cotton, general counsel of NBC Universal, Prof. Peter Jaszi of Washington College of Law at American University, Jon Baumgarten, partner with Proskauer Rose, Bill Rosenblatt of GiantSteps Media and the irrepressible Chris Castle an entertainment attorney from LA who is appearing on behalf of Arts + Labs.
Debating points will include the implications of the FCC’s net neutrality rulemaking for filtering and other online anti-piracy efforts, the French three-strikes law, Veoh’s recent court victory and its implications for UGC and the over/under line on when we’ll see the new White House IP Czar named. All packed into a fast-paced one hour. Plus bagels.
