They can do that anyway as they set the terms of use for using hteir services. They don't need CC to do that at all. But the services CC do enable are the alternatives to those services. It is interesting to have a licence where we have a legal substantial non-infringing use for p2p services so that when people say they are just for "piracy" we can prove otherwise. > How about IPV6 and the limits of the net ? IPV6 is a privacy concern. This is why Tor-style systems and their successors are important. TOR was originally paid for by the US Navy... > Can we talk about Culture Flat Rate ? How is it going ? Soviet-style payment for mass culture is a really bad idea. > Free Culture or freedom to track ? These are separate issues. If we use CC to remove the ability to gate culture and use the GPL to remove the ability to spy on network connections this decreases the economic incentives for tracking.... > Free software but microprocessors dictatorship ?

Certainly I can imagine high-frequency trading and real-time activity streams joining up to great effect. Google, Facebook and Twitter function perfectly well without CC licences though. We can't sulk them out of existence by refusing to use an alternative to the terms that they dictate to their users... - Rob. _______________________________________________ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
