Is the concept of so-called "intellectual property" being copyrightable still (or was it ever) valid? Really, copyright/trademark etc. issues do involve free speech and fundamental consitutional rights. There are problems with the laws. I am interested in Freenet exactly because it can protect my religious freedom of expression. Anonymous and redundent information storage will have its drawbacks, but it also has its excellent virtues. As soon as I am able to afford it, I plan to set up a server and a Freenet node.
The software is going to be there. If worst-case develops, the developers will simply have to go underground/develop systems for software development that can be conducted anonymously and distributed without centralized authorship.
