Jump To Comment: 1 2 3cos they see the internet as a tool of expanding culture. I would suggest that the doublespeak in this

sharing and documentation than any other movement in History, moving controls and money into
the equations is about sniffily attempting to take away a democratic organisation tool from us plebs.

Greeeeeeeat to see
