The Software Freedom Law Center invites counsel, developers, enterprise users and other members of free and open source software (FOSS) communities to join us once again for our free annual conference to explore legal issues surrounding FOSS, held at Columbia Law School on Friday, November 3, 2017.



On March 25, 2017, at LibrePlanet’s 2017 conference, Eben Moglen spoke on the subject of the free software movement in the age of Trump.

Abstract: The most powerful man in the world has no respect for freedom of speech or the rule of law. The free software movement came into existence fighting to prevent a future which is now our present. Ready or not, we have entered a new phase. Training is over. Here’s the plan.

Also, we would like to acknowledge here the kind remarks of Richard Stallman who has been Eben’s friend for over 20 years.
