Town Hall on Friday: Copyright for Internet Creators

[This is a friendly message from the Electronic Frontier Foundation.]( [Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) logo]( [Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) logo]( [Event] [Innovation] If you make and share things online, professionally or for fun, you've been affected by copyright law. Whether you're a YouTube creator, a fanfiction writer, or just interested in watching or sharing "transformative" works (or pretty much any online content), you won't want to miss this town hall on how content creation is affected by copyright—and what to do about it. [Click Here for Event Information]( Join EFF's Katharine Trendacosta and Cara Gagliano, as well as Professor Casey Fiesler, a member of the Legal Committee for Archive of Our Own, to discuss the recent flurry of changes to copyright law, how copyright filters work (or don't), and any questions you might have about copyright! We'll also include important information from our recent whitepaper on how Content ID works and how to deal with it, as well as steps you can take to protect yourself from being singled out unfairly by it. Half of the 90-minute town hall will be devoted to answering your questions and hearing your concerns. Please join us for a conversation about the state of copyright law in 2021 and what you need to know about it. Most importantly, we will give you a way to stay informed and fight back. This event will be live-streamed via [Twitch]( and is free to attend. It will also be streaming on[Facebook Live]( and[YouTube Live](. (For Twitch's[Privacy Policy, see here](.)
