Creative Commons are trying to protect shared creative (discursive for
you CS types) space from enclosure (and value extraction (asset
stripping / alienation)).

One of "No Logo"'s theses is that public (civic) space is being fenced
off by brands (which is also value extraction (asset stripping /
alienation) however "sponsorship" or other trickle-downs are
misrepresented).

This commonality of protecting shared space is important, and the two
critiques should look at each others historical models and contemporary
actions.
All of which makes me wonder whether Virillio has confused speed with
lack of space. Both mean you can move from place to place quicker, but
the ramifications are quite different…
