For the first time, the G8 Heads of State explicitly discussed internet
policy last month; the OECD is holding a High-Level Meeting to discuss ?The
Internet Economy? next week; nearly a dozen countries are negotiating a
Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement with real implications for online
intermediary liability; and this week the Dutch are the first country in
Europe to make net neutrality law.

This ACCESS LIVE event, an online live-streamed symposium, will give an
overview of recent developments in internet policy, discuss the implications
that regulation has had and will likely have on users in the future, and
discuss what a roadmap to smart and user-centric governance of the net might
look like.*

Please join us for this in-depth and dynamic discussion. See you online on
Monday June 27 noon EST athttps://www.accessnow.org/live*
