A presentation to the New York City Amateur Radio Emergency Services
by Brett Wynkoop
of New Yorkers for Fair Use http://www.nyfairuse.org
Thursday, January 16, 7:00 p.m.
At the American Red Cross 150 Amsterdam Avenue & 66th Street, Manhattan, NY
FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
This presentation will cover the DMCA, Digital "Rights Management", and the
Sonny Bono Act and how they are being used to stop free speech, research,
and progress in the useful arts and sciences. Attendees will also learn
how these laws combined with other proposals nullify any person's Fourth
and Fifth Amendment rights and how this can lead to a defacto ban on
research into digital communications by Hams. We will also discuss what
you can do to protect your rights today and tomorrow.
Brett Wynkoop, WA3YRE is a veteran fighter on the new Civil Rights
Front of the digital age. He operates brooklynonline.com and a small
computer consulting business from the Park Slope home he shares with his
wife Kathleen, cat Marisa and rabbit Coco. He was originally licensed in
1972 as WN6URI, then WB6URI. He has been involved in emergency
communications since obtaining his novice license. He was net control for
the San Diego County slow speed CW net on 3725 Khz and after upgrading to
a general class license started the San Diego County 10 Meter phone
traffic & emergency net. He has worked on emergency communications during
California brush fires, east cost hurricanes, and other situations both
large and small. He loves to tinker with antennas and simple one evening
electronic projects.
