I haven't read that one yet, but I'm currently finishing up "What the Dormouse Said" which recounts the intersection of the personal computing industry with the 1960 counterculture in the San Francisco Bay Area.
I've noticed that a few leftist commentators have recently made erroneous comparisons between certain aspects of the computer world and cyberspace with "communism". I don't know if the above book does this too, but comparing phenomenon like the free software movement with "communism" is a stretch. The free software movement is more anarchistic and actually inspired by real anarchists who have contributed to it. And evidently, according to the book I just mentioned, the free software/open source movement (FOSS) stretches back to the 1960s, if not the late 1950s.
