The Atlantic article on intellectual property and computers is online at:

http://www.theatlantic.com/issues/98sep/copy.htm

It is a powerful attack on Gates, Disney, Time-Warner and company. Atlantic
Monthly is interesting. Their entire issue is always online and they seem
to believe that this is the wave of the future. I have been reading the
magazine lately and it seems to be getting better and better. There was a
terrific article on Cuba that I posted to PEN-L that originated in the
Atlantic. What's interesting is that when I went to the PEN-L archives to
have a look at it, it was gone. I have a feeling that Don Roper might have
deleted it to keep CSF out of trouble, even if Atlantic Monthly itself is
on record against this form of free speech infringement.
