To form an anology: you want to read be able to everything and think that you should have that right. You are angry that you cannot legally do so and make excuses based on your sense of deprivation.

A lot of united states tax dollars goes towards building bombs to kill people in foreign countries, this seems pretty immoral doesn't it? The entire system is garbage...
We are concerned with books here, and access to them.
Internet 2.0 is not nonsense, far from it. There are many working on the nuts and bolts of the new system. Internet 1.0 was built to be open, and as such bred a community who believed in the openness of the network to all. If Internet 2.0 is built to be closed, we can assume that it will breed the same.
Laws???????????????????
