Hello,

A reminder that there is a DefectiveByDesign.org event outside of the
Apple Store tomorrow starting at 1400.

For the event we have:

 * 20 HAZMAT suits
 * 3,000 A5 leaflets to distribute
 * Over 20 A3 Placards
 * 2 A0 posters

I understand there will be people there dedicated to taking
photographs and this should be a good opportunity to raise awareness
of Digital Rights Management and it's impact on Free culture.

If you are unsure of why DRM is a really bad idea you could watch
Lawrence Lessigs keynote presentation from LinuxWorld last month. It
is a really great introduction to the problems the Free culture
movement is facing at the moment.

I really hope to see some of the GLLUG membership at the event.
