FIlesharing...philosophy and utopianism
Sep 12, 2002, 19:58
You know how there are file sharing sites? Where people can share music and software n' stuff for free?

Just imagine if there were food-sharing sites, where anyone could download a nutricious and tasty meal of their choice!

On the one hand, it would mean that nobody with a PC and modem would ever need to starve again; on the other hand it would mean that such a site would be sued by the food-growers trade organisations of America, and forced to close.

So. We've seen a little window into utopia... A world where nobody has to pay for anything, and antone can have what they want without it all having to go through the insanely comlex and wasteful system of production and distribution currently in force.

No wonder Big Business is so keen to control and destroy it.
