File sharing
Shirky on RIAA and encryption
Clay Shirky talks about how the RIAA's current legal strategy is driving broad public adoption of encryption in his latest essay. The essay is good (especially since I will be arguing much the same point), but Clay's use of the term cat
and
mouse
game is interesting:
The obvious parallel here is with Prohibition. By making it
unconstitutional for an adult to have a drink in their own home,
Prohibition created a cat and mouse game between law enforcement and
millions of citizens engaged in an activity that was illegal but
popular. As with file sharing, the essence of the game was hidden
transactions -- you needed to be able to get into a speakeasy or buy
bootleg without being seen.
