<div dir="ltr">I received a request to talk about hacktivism to UC

Would you like to talk about hacktivism? If so, please contact
Eric, who's organizing the event:<br>

Dear Mr. Altman: Hello. My name is Eric DeBellis. I am a former
Allen Hall<br>
resident and current law student at the University of
California, Berkeley.<br>
As a co-leader for the National Lawyers Guild Berkeley Law
Chapter, I am<br>
wondering if you would be interested in visiting Berkeley Law to
speak on<br>
the topic of hacktivism. We are planning to host two speakers.
One would be<br>
a Berkeley Law professor who represents a more “establishment”
perspective<br>
on the issue, so we were thinking that reaching out to you as
the second<br>
speaker makes sense. I understand that political hacktivism is
not your<br>
focus, but you’re a part of the hacker community, and you’re
approachable<br>
and quite good at conveying your passions to unfamiliar
audiences. We would<br>
not be asking you to debate the professor. Rather, you’d explain
hacking in<br>
general, then how hacking has entered the political activism
realm, then<br>
the professor would talk about it in more legalese terms. After,
we’d open<br>
it up to questions/discussions from a group of students. As for
the topic,<br>
Anonymous’s involvement in protests in Jefferson, Missouri is a
particular<br>
area of interest for students, so we would like to use that as
an<br>
illustration, but only as a launchpad to discuss broader issues
that<br>
interest you and your counterpart. We do not have a date as of
yet, but<br>
funding likely would be available. At the very least, we would
provide a<br>
tasty lunch and a room of eager minds. If you’re interested, we
would love<br>
to host you for lunch. Please contact me with any questions.
Sincerely,<br>
Eric DeBellis<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Best, <br>
Mitch. <br>
