Students Protest DMCA During Visit by Valenti

lsy writes "A group of University of Rochester students staged a protest during the university's Sesquicentennial weekend on the occasion of Jack Valenti's appearance to moderate a panel of Hollywood insiders. The students handed out pamphlets, wore DeCSS t-shirts donated by Copyleft, and demonstrated a DVD being played under linux. After the event, the group had a chance to speak with Valenti for over an hour. They've received some press from the Hollywood Insider [yahoo version], and the group's web site claims that it will have photographs online of the students with Valenti "soon"."

    What the pictures won't include is the scenes afterwards with Valenti grinningly dragging a few screaming students all the way back with him to Hell.
