This article, now somewhat dated, redirects my attention back to this fundumental problem with the world today. Should we allow The Machine to own all knowledge and effectively control its transfer and trading as if it were money? Should we allow the corporations to put a price the worth of knowledge, or a price on knowledge use value or the cost of knowledge? It seems to me we are headed to a pretty scary world in which you are not allowed to share your mind for you don't own anything in it, and therefore have no legal right to share what's in there with anyone under penalty of law. |
