Anyone remember an article in Mother Jones a loooong time ago called "CyberSelfish?" The gist of the piece was that cybertopian whining about government regulation was hypocritical, given that most technological innovation has been the result of government R&D.

The article served as the perfect weapon for waging war on that execrable species known as the Internet Libertarian Geek Boy, whose natural habit is Usenet newsgroups devoted to Hayek hagiography.
