Hello Cassiano Reinert dos Santos,
September 18th -- less than one week away -- is International Day
Against DRM (IDAD), an annual day of action and celebration
against Digital Restrictions Management (DRM). On IDAD, people
who care about DRM get together all over the world and the Web to say
in one voice that we stand against DRM and for digital freedom.
Pledge to participate in this year's IDAD!
Want to get involved?
People are gathering digitally and in-person to take action against
DRM, and you can be involved. Here are just a few things you can do as
an individual:
Organize a flyering event. If you haven't done one before,
check out our Giving Guide Giveaway Primer, as inspiration. You
can also contact us at address@hidden for advice and
materials. Alternatively, put up anti-DRM and DRM-free flyers around
your campus, community, or neighborhood.
Go a Day Without DRM! We're challenging ourselves to go a day
without using DRM-encumbered media and devices: no Netflix, Steam,
or locked down ebooks or music. We'll be blogging about the
experience afterwards and sharing on social media throughout the
day.
Write your own blog post about why you oppose DRM.
Share on social media using the hashtag #IDAD.
Hosting an event? We can help you reach out to free software
supporters in your area. Contact us at address@hidden.
Are you an organization?
Do you run or work for an organization that opposes DRM? You can join
us as well.
Show your support by adding your logo to the logo cloud on the
right-hand side of this page.
Organize an event in your area. Past events have included a video
game festival, film screenings, rallies in public spaces, and
protests at DRM-supporting businesses.
Share with your members, constituents, supporters, and followers why
you stand against DRM.
Add a modal window to your Web site before IDAD and/or on the
day of. (Our modal window works without proprietary
_javascript_.)
Offer a discount, deal, or giveaway of DRM-free media or DRM-free
devices.
We're also interested in hearing your ideas, so feel free to contact
us at address@hidden.
See you on September 18th!
Let us know you'll be there.
Cheers,
