After reading PART V consider these:

  • What is it that we have to lose?

Chapter 16: The Problems We Face

3 Reasons why American's are disable in properly facing cyberspace issues

  • limited courts -
    • "It is against this background that we should think about the problems

raised in Parts 3 and 4. In each case, my argument was that we will need to choose the values we want cyberspace to embrace. These questions are not addressed by any clear constitutional text or tradition. In the main, they are questions affecting the codifying part of our tradition, but they are also cases of latent ambiguity. There is no answer to them in the sense of a judgment that seems to have been made and that a court can simply report. An answer must be fixed upon, not found; made, not discovered; chosen, not reported." (Lessig 315)

  • limited legislatures -
    • "But the problemhere is not with governance in cyberspace.Our problem

is with governance itself. There is no special set of dilemmas that cyberspace will present; there are only the familiar dilemmas of modern governance, but in a new place." (Lessig 320)

  • limited thinking - Ask your self these these questions before reading this section and answer them when you're done. -
    • "Of course, for the computer scientist code is law. And if code is law, then

obviously the question we should ask is:Who are the lawmakers?Who writes this law that regulates us? What role do we have in defining this regulation? What right do we have to know of the regulation? And how might we intervene to check it?"
