The state of technology will either allow me to communicate with others freely or it won't, regardless of content.
If two concentual parties can exchange information on an encrypted channel. They can plan a revolution, spread knowlege that powerful don't want them to, conspire, or give each other media such as music and movies. PGP makes this possible even on top of open channels like email.
If information can be published and read without outside parties being able to interfere, people can publish truths nessesary for democracy, pron, or copies of media like music and movies. Systems like freenet(please look) provide for this even in hostile enviroments like China via anonymity.
Any attempt to try to control content will require submitting content to a regulatory organ like "the ministry of truth", RIAA, or MIAA and replacing our computers with an industry certified "big brother boxs". You can have my computer when you pry it out of my cold stiff fingers.
Ok "conservatives", I'm new here. You tell me what's more important. 100% enforcement of "intelectual property rights" or freedom of speech? Big Brother law enforcement or freedom of press? There's a big choice to made!!!
