The Great Anti-IP Manifesto
We, the denizens of the Free Internet World, as represented by I, Lord I. Hate U. Declare:
1) That the internet has finally toppled the Western world promulgated concept of Intellectual Property.
2) That art, literature, cinema, and other forms of self expression should be free to everyone.
3) That there should be no division between the first and the third world when it comes to access to all forms of knowledge that has previously been protected by the oppressive intellectual property laws.
4) That technology should be free. That Bill Gates should be glad that people are using his program, even if they paid nothing for it.
5) That the creators of Napster, Emule, and other peer to peer sharing programs be declared by the Vatican as saints.
6) That they be declared by every nation as national heroes.
7) That they be given Nobel Prizes for literature, peace, and all other such prizes that may even be remotely connected to their work.
8) That the internet should not be used for commerce of intellectual property. Porn sites be FREE!
For further explanations and musings with regards to this manifesto, purchase my book for $14.99 entitled "The Anti-IP Manifesto" at all Amazon stores and other specialty bookstores. Anybody caught with book-alikes and xerox copies of any portion of the book shall be punished severely.
