Jodå, the dotCommunist Manifesto är trevligt, och skräms man inte av Communist i titeln kan nog de flesta ha någon behållning av det. Men vi kanske borde täcka lite mer grundläggande saker innan vi går in på särkskilda analyser som denna. Jag yrkar på att vi lägger den på kö för senare behandling.

the dotCommunist Manifesto - http://emoglen.law.columbia.edu/publications/dcm.html
Jag har inte läst hela, det var lite väl tungt språkbruk för mig just nu men för att citera slutklämmen av dokumentet:
We, the creators of the free information society, mean to wrest from the bourgeoisie, by degrees, the shared patrimony of humankind. We intend the resumption of the cultural inheritance stolen from us under the guise of ``intellectual property,'' as well as the medium of electromagnetic transportation. We are committed to the struggle for free speech, free knowledge, and free technology. The measures by which we advance that struggle will of course be different in different countries, but the following will be pretty generally applicable:
Abolition of all forms of private property in ideas.
Withdrawal of all exclusive licenses, privileges and rights to use of electromagnetic spectrum. Nullification of all conveyances of permanent title to electromagnetic frequencies.
Development of electromagnetic spectrum infrastructure that implements every person's equal right to communicate.
Common social development of computer programs and all other forms of software, including genetic information, as public goods.
Full respect for freedom of speech, including all forms of technical speech.
Protection for the integrity of creative works.
Free and equal access to all publicly-produced information and all educational material used in all branches of the public education system.
By these and other means, we commit ourselves to the revolution that liberates the human mind. In overthrowing the system of private property in ideas, we bring into existence a truly just society, in which the free development of each is the condition for the free development of all.
