The End of the Virtual World be Upon Us

more specifically - the beginning of the end of the virtual world be upon us.

let me say again; the sky IS falling.

this new threat - is more devious than anything bill gates could come up with - and will make us wish for the good old days of viruses, malware, and spam.

i'm speaking of threats to net neutrality. the easiest way to spin up on this issue is to watch this video. also this page explains the significance of this. and Lawrence Lessig's blog gives us some good context.

at stake is content such as this from brookers ;)

(impressed? her myspace page shows her video blogs have earned her an interview on NBC and a job from them as well...)

Many programms include spyware modules. Use anti-spyware for protect your privacy.
As for me, I like professional anti-spy software like PrivacyKeyboard by Raytown Corporation LLC.

thanks simon, for the blog-spam. my mac couldn't save me from you. or perhaps you really understood my post and are just being poetic?

i'll leave this up as my token piece of spam for the olde timey feelings it invokes.
