Matt Lee

I'm Matt Lee, one of the folks behind behind Foo Communications, a company/experiment in music and social media, including Libre.fm, a new social media platform that offers musicians exclusive promotion and play in exchange for licensing their music under a free culture license, and GNU social, a federated social networking project.

I must speak out against both her and DReaM. A DRM compromise at this stage would be insanity. This is a fight we have to win.

I'm certainly glad we have people willing to go and long and be a pain in the arse at events like this, because that's what it'll take to win this.
