Tollbooths of the mind (Christian Science Monitor)

The Christian Science Monitor has an opinion column on the excesses of current copyright law. "These are mere annoyances, however, compared with what's coming next: the computer as informational Coke machine, on which we have to pay for every view. As publishers move increasingly to the Web, for example, they will be able to restrict not just access, but downloading and printing as well."
