Defenda sua liberdade na batalha dos copyrights!

 

Darknet é o primeiro livro de interesse geral escrito por um blogueiro e editado colaborativamente por seus leitores, esta obra revela como o medo que Hollywood tem da pirataria digital esta causando grande discussão sobre copyright e seus clientes, que adoram seus gravadores digital TiVo, MP3Players, TVs digitais, computadores e utensílios do tipo.

Extraindo um acesso sem precedentes aos internos do entretenimento, inovadores tecnológicos e provocadores - incluindo os que lutam nos dois lados desta guerra - o livro mostra como companhias do entretenimento estão ameaçando os fundamentos da liberdade da era digital.

 

"An indispensable primer for those who want to protect their digital rights from the dark forces of big media."
- Kara Swisher, author of aol.com

The first general interest book by a blogger edited collaboratively by his readers, Darknet reveals how Hollywood’s fear of digital piracy is leading to escalating clashes between copyright holders and their customers, who love their TiVo digital video recorders, MP3 music players, digital televisions, computers, and other cutting-edge devices.
