The network is increasingly the source people turn to for information, thanks to the wealth of data it offers and the ease of access; however, the network also has dark aspects that should be known. The meeting will seek to shed light on some of these aspects and offer, even to the youngest audience, tools to avoid falling into the pitfalls of disinformation.

Copyright on The Web: How to Protect Yourself?
Presentation of the book Blockchain law, artificial intelligence and IoT by Fulvio Sarzana of
S. Ippolito and Massimiliano Nicotra, Wolters Kluwer, 2018.
How is copyright protected on the web? The agora of the network, dotted with opposing rights and stakeholders, has the ability to make the use of content global, immediate and straightforward: it becomes difficult to protect intellectual property on the net and online platforms.
The meeting, aimed at creating awareness in this regard, will deal with the opposing requests for control and openness, examining the legal and technological protection tools and creating a debate on the "rigid" discipline of intellectual property versus greater openness and freedom.

Social Media: Opportunities and Social Life Dangers
Presentation of Social media and rights. Law and social media special issue of the magazine Informatica e Diritto (Italian Scientific Editions, 2017) edited by Gian Luca Conti, Marina Pietrangelo and Francesco Romano.
The volume offers a clear reflection on the multiple legal issues related to the use of social media. Social media are used in daily life, guaranteeing ample opportunities for immediate and effective interaction, but at the same time exposing to unprecedented dangers and risks, being an instrument of hatred, discrimination, fake news, bullying. Social media are also a powerful weapon to guide consumers, users and citizens, even at the political level. The meeting, starting from the book, wants to examine the lights and shadows of social life, providing useful tools of awareness to move more safely on the net.

Our Future between the Technological Revolution, Artificial Intelligence and Robot
Presentation of the book Artificial madness by Luca Bolognini (Rubbettino, 2018)
In the essay "Artificial madness", the significant legal and ethical issues posed by Artificial Intelligence are addressed with simplicity and originality. The nine reflections of this book, both light and profound, clearly guide the present and the future: they range from the analysis of behavioural and aggressive profiling for marketing or propaganda purposes, up to the extreme scenarios of electronic and automated warfare; from freedom of expression to the robotic replacement of workers but also, and perhaps above all, of employers who turn into apps; from the weak relationships of social networks to the monetisation of data, up to the fusion between material and immaterial dimension with the Internet of Things. New rights and new freedoms, new threats and new opportunities in the era of the "digital subconscious".
