80-136 HW 5

Email me your assignment by 1:30 Monday, 8/6.

Choose one of the following:

  1. Define and defend the claim that "information wants to be free"

  2. Should P2P client applications such as Napster and Gnutella be allowed to exist without government regulation?

  3. Should schools and libraries be required to install internet filters?

  4. Define and defend the claim that cyberspace improves democracy.

Do the same as with HW 5: create an explication "in reverse," then consider objections and replies.

ImportantFocus on the ethical issues, not the legal ones.
