Safeweb Turns Off Free Service

Posted by timothy on from the no-more-no-more dept.

    As far as I can see, so long as you're only browsing *legal* porn, there's nothing to worry about - you're not telling me the internet has *other* uses are you ;-)?

    Bah!

    Life doesn't cost money--we've made it so we're in the habit of paying for the things we need. Services only cost money until the service provider asks that he or she be given something that's more directly necessary, or desirable.

    Don't confuse economics (the 'science' of managing scarcity) with money.

    Finally, go look at Daniel Quinn's 'Beyond Civilization' for a little insight into how we can (and why we should) stop thinking in terms of the old ways (which really are tremendously new).
