If you remove the politicians who are selling out, they'll just be replaced by other sellouts. It's not enough to defeat bad laws as they come up, new laws affirming the freedom of data need to be fought for and won. The best defense is a good offense, and that is something sorely lacking in the IP wars. And the great difficulty with mounting that offense, is deciding what the objectives should be.

The brain doesn't work that way. You could trigger a thought, and then extract the thought as it happens. But is it a memory, or a response to the trigger? Is the memory real, or was it planted earlier? There is little difference in the brain between remembering that someone said something, and remembering that you were told that someone said it.

If we won't stand together, we don't stand a chance.
