Here Today, Gone Tomorrow
by noteworthy at 11:40 pm EST, Jan 10, 2006

Esther Dyson, editor of CNET Networks' technology newsletter, writes in "Anonymity," that there is information about everyone everywhere, and that though people think they want anonymity, they are actually trading it for recognition and a voice.

Esther says reputation and anonymity are mutually exclusive.

Stanford University law professor Lawrence Lessig sees, in "The Public Domain," the area unregulated by copyright rules where creative work is developed and spread, being swallowed by the private domain as "the cultivation of culture and creativity" will be dictated by "those who claim to own it."

Richard N. Haass, Council of Foreign Relations president, writes in "Sovereignty" that nation-states will not disappear but sovereignty "will no longer be sanctuary" and will fall victim to the "flow of people, ideas, greenhouse gases, goods, dollars, drugs, viruses, e-mails and weapons within and across borders."
