Taming the Web

Thomas writes: "A story on Technology Review outlines the closer-to-reality-than-you-think fact that Internet regulations are right around the corner. It points out three false hopes held by web 'libertarians.' 1. the web is too international to control. 2. the net is too interconnected to fence in. 3. the net is full of hackers that are impossible to control. This is a good read." Bingo.

Fire off satellites into the skies, using a collaboration of various phreaks and hax0r types as well as disgruntled rocket engineers and freethinkers. Put em in geostationary orbit. Sell send/receive dishes to send/receive IPv6 (sp?) over the airwaves.

Try backhoe cutting that connection, or suing space.

Of course, the US government could shoot em all down, but... it appears to me to be the only way to avoid the legal hassles...
