The aim of the Coference Card Game is to make you think about the meaning of words and the influence your speaking habits have on the reality. You may disagree with some or all of our opinions. However, we will be more than happy if we make you think more critically, consciously and carefully while using copyright language.

There are 52 cards in a deck. Each card refers to a single popular word used in the copyright debate. Even very few people in the conference room using the cards can raise awareness of the importance of the copyright language.

More information on the Conference Card Game copyspeak.org.

Buy a deck to share the idea with your friends.

Presentation of prof. Eben Moglen at the CopyCamp conference is available at copycamp.pl.
