But... But... Life would be so much better for all if everybody could have a free car a free wide screen tv a free dslr camera free vacations.

Yes let's make everything free and that way we don't even have to work!

I don't get it. If I labor and create a program and have a family to support with the income from this program, they are advocating it's ok to "copy and paste" my hard work for free. I really hope they get a chance to experience this first hand when they get real jobs. I hope they don't get paid after working and then be told that the bosses are members of their "religion" (really trying to legalize stealing) too.

I wonder if these zealots are programmers and feel the same too. I don't think so.

Information is free, but there are a well organized group of criminals who will harass, rob, kidnap and forcibly detain you if you trade in the protected ones info. This article tries to paint the true nature of information transfers and exchanges as a fringe religion to marginalize the common sense libertarian beliefs

No Offence given @chris, I think it would be pretty retarded to think that 2000 yrs in the future we would be have any religions :)

@Wildbill6996 Mark Zuckerberg started facebook before he was even 20, chew on that you age-discriminative douche.

I'd rather people worship free data access than an intangible, unverifiable figure from a book.

Great, isn't this just how the whole jesus thing got started?

In 2000 years they will be debating if the 'copied and seeded' practices should be taught alongside grade 5 quantum mechanics?
