Yesterday (April 10, 2024) I participated in Strings Attached: Tracing the Global Systems that Bind, 62nd Annual International Affairs Symposium, Lewis & Clark College, Portland Oregon, Debate 5: Pirates and Patents. Debate Topic: Is international intellectual property regulation a necessary protection for innovators or a form of modern imperialism?

My opponent was Pieter Cleppe. My notes are appended below. Official audio/video from the college should be provided shortly. In the meantime I will post here my own iphone recording of the debate. The audio for my remarks should be clear, but may be muffled for Cleppe and audience questions, until I get the official AV file from the college.
