BlankCOPYRIGHT AND DEMOCRACY
Joining Richard Stallman's sizzling polemic on the past and future of
copyright, Sandy Starr explains its increasing regulation by industry groups
and calls for more democracy. Ian Kearns sees copyright as a case in point
of how governments can regulate the net; and Eric Raymond argues the law's
an ass - concentrate on the technology.
