Larry makes a return visit to “This Week in Law” on Friday at 11 AM Pacific Time.  Topics will be based on the week’s developments, but almost certain to include the furor over the U.N.’s treaty negotiations for International Telecommunications Regulations, the unraveling mobile device patent wars, and the future of video hearing held today in the House.

As always, the podcast will be available on-demand after the program airs.

Larry will be a panelist at Tech Policy Summit on June 6, 2012.  He’ll be talking about the successful effort to block passage earlier this year of two controversial copyright extension laws, SOPA and PIPA, and the creation of a “bitroots” movement of user-based advocacy.  Registration information can be found here.

Larry will be speaking to the Berkeley Startup Cluster on May 16th at the Berkeley Rep Theater.   Lunch is $10 or bring your own.

Larry will be attending next week’s Privacy Identity and Innovation conference in Seattle.  On May 15, he will interview Andrew Keen, author of “Digital Vertigo,” and discuss privacy and social media.

Larry will be Denise Howell’s guest on April 6th’s “This Week in Law.”  Geoff Manne, Director of the International Center for Law and Economics, will also be a guest.  They’ll talk with Denise about the week’s developments, including new/old net neutrality fights about Comcast and Microsoft, patent fever with Facebook counter-suing Yahoo, and Verizon’s efforts to acquire spectrum from a consortium of cable companies.  The show runs live starting at 11 AM Pacific Time, or watch it on podcast starting later in the day.

2011 was a busy year for speaking and writing.  In addition to regular contributions for Forbes and CNET, Larry wrote for a variety of publications and was regularly quoted in the press about important developments in innovation, strategy, and the law.  On stories including net neutrality, SOPA and PIPA, and the AT&T/T-Mobile merger, Larry was not only writing but also speaking out in Washington and elsewhere.

Larry also published two chapters in the ground-breaking book, “The Next Digital Decade:  Essays on the Future of the Internet, still available from TechFreedom.  (Larry is now Senior Adjunct Fellow with TechFreedom, a technology policy think tank based in Washington.)
