Pedro Paranagua is a Brazilian legal scholar whose public writing between 2010 and 2012 addressed copyright, patents, access to knowledge and freedom of expression. This site does not speak for him. It is an independent reference that explains those topics in neutral terms and files his archived public posts alongside them, so a reader arriving from an old link finds context rather than a dead page.
