A free Net may depend on some wisely developed and implemented locks and a community ethos that secures the keys to those locks among groups with shared norms and a sense of public purpose rather than in the hands of one gatekeeper Picture Quote #1

Through historical accident, we’ve ended up with a global network that pretty much allows anybody to communicate with anyone else at any time Picture Quote #1

Speech shouldn’t just be for people with lawyers Picture Quote #1

If what you are getting online is for free, you are not the customer, you are the product Picture Quote #1
