The cry "information just wants to be free" is at core an attack on intellectual property (private property) rights....

It was these kinds of thinkers that created the internet and the web. But why quibble.

"It was these kinds of thinkers that created the internet and the web"

Open source had nothing to do with the creation of the Internet.
The interned was created as a direct result of the US government ARPA awarding the ARPANET contract to BBN etc etc.
All this was paid for by US goverment tax dollars, just like the NASA moon landing project was.
No open sorcery here, mate.
Thinkers are thinkers. Thy create and invent things. They don't need open source ideology for that.
