> | Introduction
The continuing migration of human activity 'online' requires a re-examination of many of the bargains embodied in our social contract--bargains antiquated by the underlying technological change. Debates about intellectual property laws and privacy are, at their core, debates about the right balance between our interests in autonomy, equality, prosperity and security. Consequently, it is hard to overstate the importance of the consensus we reach on these issues. We are balancing fundamental values. |

That is to say, we should not allow it to devolve into a bargain between incumbent factions with the resources to capture the political process. We need real grass-roots deliberation. We need an internet architected to curtail the influence of the incumbents--a network where both ownership and control are maximally dispersed. |
