Keeping politicians' hands off the Net & everything else related to technology
In the latest issue of TechKnowledge, I explain why free software should give libertarians a warm, fuzzy feeling inside.

I was afraid the latter column would get a hostile reaction from the Ars readership, but the response at the Ars forums has been fairly positive.
