Jorge Cortell, giving a speech.

Jorge Cortell is an activist well known for his strong opposition to Intellectual Property.

He used to be a teaching assistant in a university diploma course, on intellectual property at the Universitat Politècnica de Valencia. On 2005-05-04 he was dismissed for uncertain reasons (but rumours reported it was related to his various attempts to gain public relevance by using controversial subject to his benefit).

Currently, he gives speeches against intellectual property on a regular basis.

[updated] It seems that actually cortell's website [1] is closed because of some "criminal prosecution", following the advice of his lawyers. They say it may be related with his last post about escort services scandal in the United States [2]
