Revision as of 14:33, 21 January 2010

Ideas for the action

In the past we've used the yellow HazMat suits, but this seems like a good occasion to break out something new. Ideas?

Messages for the action

Amazon's recent actions suggest that the Apple Tablet may have a strong ebook reader component, which undoubtedly will be DRM-infected, and probably closely coupled with the iTunes store.

The device will have a proprietary OS, of course. But will it go even further and be tethered to an App Store like the iPhone?

Materials for the action

Possibilities

  • What is Free Software? flyer
  • DbD anti-DRM flyer
