"Unfortunately we have a global network, a global economy and
global companies,
but we have not got a global legal system. Never before have we
lived in a
situation like this." ==== But we do. It's called the WTO and it'll keep getting bigger unless we keep our guard up. Of course, it's "their" version of a legal system, not ours, especially when you consider 12 people wrote the TRIPS agreement. We need to develop webs and swarms of resistance to preclude the desire for licensing; that's just a wedge for even more commodification of information. Surfing is a right to knowledge that is inalienable.
