" "Code will be a central tool in this analysis. It will present the greatest threat to both liberal and libertarian ideals, as well as their greatest promise. We can build, or architect, or code cyberspace to protect values that we believe are fundamental. Or we can build, or architect, or code cyberspace to allow those values to disappear. There is no middle ground. There is no choice that does not include some kind of building. Code is never found; it is only ever made, and only ever made by us.

Additional quotes by Lawrence Lessig
If you don't do something now, this freedom that you built, that you spend your life coding, this freedom will be taken away. Either by those who see you as a threat, who then invoke the system of law we call patents, or by those who take advantage of the extraordinary expansion of control that the law of copyright now gives them over innovation. Either of these two changes through law will produce a world where your freedom has been taken away. And, If you can't fight for your freedom . . . you don't deserve it.
But it is to say that a basic idea of a representative democracy — one that argues over fundamental choices of policy, through the battle between differently committed representatives — is not the reality of our democracy anymore. We’ve settled into what Francis Fukuyama calls a “vetocracy,” where change of almost any kind, whether from the Right or the Left, is practically always stopped.

A TV a cabo também nasceu de uma forma de pirataria.
Quando os empreendedores do cabo começaram a fornecer às comunidades com TV a cabo em 1948, muitos deles negaram-se a pagar às redes de TV pelo conteúdo que eles redistribuíam aos seus consumidores. Mesmo quando as companhias de cabo começaram a vender acesso às redes de TV, eles negavam-se a pagar pelo que elas vendiam. As companhias do cabo estavam, na prática, Napsterizando o conteúdo das redes de TV, mas de forma pior do que qualquer coisa que o Napster tenha feito o Napster jamais cobrou pelo conteúdo que ele permitia que os outros dessem.
