Modding and the Law

S3D writes "An article at O'Reilly discusses modding as a cultural phenomenon and its relation to the law and authority. The conclusion is that social activists are modders too. They want to change the government into something that supports a productive society. They want institutions to stop hiding facts and to pay attention to science. They want to change corporations, change people's day-to-day behavior, and change our own social relationships."

MP3s and warez aren't a birthright.

If you don't like copyright, then that means you also think it's okay to violate the GPL, since it also relies on copyright.
