I see,/. and the open source community are naive? & I suppose you have more faith in law makers? Or perhaps executive managers? How many people do you trust your credit card details with on a weekly basis? What about those bank employees? You know, the stressed looking ones with the `I owe someone money' look about them...
White collar criminals rip exponentially more money than yr average website cracker gets out of cc no.'s, & they almost inevitably get away with it! Later to head another big company... A matter of declaring bankruptcy at the time as the missing millions gather interest in pacific tax havens...
Face it, your local supermarket keeps customer records, they know what you like, they have a goddamn dossier on your breakfast cereal preferences. The `State' walks in & out of your `confidential' phone conversations at will, yr boss legally owns your emails.
What the hell is the law? What is right & wrong? What is property? As far as the Man is concerned, it's whatever he says it is. Just ask Steve Jackson about Operation Sundevil.
Freedom of the press is restricted to those that own one... I'm sorry pal, but the same truism goes for property & law. Supreme truth is monopolised by those in control of the iconography. It seems some are more clearly influenced by that iconography.
Frankly, given the option, I'd rather cast my straws on the likes of {} & Nohican...
