I think the point Giggleton ultimately is trying to make is that if someone has a piece of information you really can't tell them what to do or not to do with that information. With physical books there were already constraints on copying and distribution. With the internet there is no such constraints. The same question could be asked: who are you to decide what someone can and can't do with information they possess? Culture is shared, blah blah blah.

I feel like this has already been discussed. i don't mind having the same discussions, but I need time between them. You wouldn't read the same book again and again and again and again without some time in-between each rereading. I need time before my I have this discussion again.

As it is, to quote chief Joseph, I am tired. My heart is sick and sad(okay it isn't really sick or sad, but lets be dramatic here). From where the sun now stands, I will post no more forever(just on this thread).
