Join EFF's Rainey Reitman at a meetup for local Bitcoin enthusiasts. She'll be discussing financial censorship—which payment providers pressure websites to take down legal but controversial speech—and the role virtual currencies can play in routing around this form of censorship. She'll also be discussing California's virtual currency licensing proposal, including concerns about the bill and what can be done to influence it.

The event will also feature Angela Keaton, Director of Operations for Antiwar.com, discussing "In the battle between Antiwar.com vs. the FBI, Bitcoin wins."

This event will be at the Internet Archive in San Francisco, CA.
