from FUD to ARTIFICIAL barriers
300+ ÅRStatute of Anne (1710)
THINK OF THE CHILDREN
Wheras printers, booksellers, and other persons, have of late frequently taken the liberty of
printing... books, and other writings, without the consent of the authors... to their very great
detriment, and too often to the ruin of them and their families: For preventing therefore such
practices for the future, and for the encouragement of learned men to compose and
write useful books…
dead tree as NORM
2 dominant truths
1. No cash, No Creation
2. Everything Is property
Anything that is in the world when you’re born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works. Anything that’s invented between when you’re fifteen and thirty-five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can
probably get a career in it. Anything invented after you’re thirty-five is against
the natural order of things.
DEMISE of the analogue age
four INCREDIBLE oddideas… that WORKED
STALLMAN proved empirically that ECONOMICS is not the only MOTIVATION for creativity…
But what do tecchies know?... really?
WALES proved that STALLMANS ideas could be SCALED (and worked even among non-tecchies)
And still we cling to the mythology…
OSTROM proves workability of alternative PROPERTY models and should finally but the TRAGEDY to rest
This is an attack on over 500 years of philosophical, economic knowledge & imperialism…
If a LAWYER makes LICENSES accessible people will share what they make. CREATIVITY will flourish & society will be enriched.
