Cheers to the Winners of EFF’s 18th Annual Cyberlaw Trivia Night!

EFF — Deeplinks · · International · AI Governance

EFF held its 18th Annual Cyberlaw Trivia Night in San Francisco, bringing together attorneys and tech-law enthusiasts for six rounds of competition covering privacy, free speech, intellectual property, AI, and internet law. Returning quizmaster Kurt Opsahl led teams through questions on topics ranging from geofence warrants to Section 230.

Why this matters: This is a community event, not a policy development. But the topics teams competed on — geofence warrants, AI copyright, Section 230, platform censorship battles — are the live wires of digital rights law right now. The people in that room are often the ones litigating or shaping these issues. That is worth a moment of attention, even if the occasion is a trivia night.
