[isoc-ny] MEETUP/WEBCAST THURS: From Runnymede to Philadelphia to Cyberspace: The Enduring Legacy of #MagnaCarta @BrooklynLaw #BLSMagnaCarta

[ISOC-NY announcements]

You may have already seen ISOC-NY President David Solomonoff refer to this
event as the kick off point for the Citizen’s Charter for Cyberspace
<https://consensys.net/dappathons/2015/09/08/Brooklyn%20Law%20Magna%20Carta%20Symposium.html>
hackathon over the following two days. I'm very happy to announce that we
will stream the whole conference live. Pay particular attention to the
actual Cyberspace session (2:15pm)  which includes, John Perry Barlow
(author of the Declaration of the Independence of Cyberspace
<https://w2.eff.org/Censorship/Internet_censorship_bills/barlow_0296.declaration>
- skyping in as he convalesces from a recent heart attack), Jeff Pulver,
Reed Hundt, Charles Nesson, Douglas Rushkoff, Marina Sitrin, Daniel
Berninger, Daniel Kahn Gilmor, and Harry Halpin!

I will say that Runnymede holds particular significance for me personally
as it was there, when I was playing high school rugby on its turf many
years ago, that my skull got fractured by a misplaced boot, and my
promising career as a prop forward came to sudden stop.

Note that there are still seats available to attend in person, but you must
RSVP at the link below (free).
