Re: FLASH: here we go again: one of these things is just like the other

[John Dowdell]

This is one of the keystones of a digital economy: any producer can be

parasitized. (We're seeing the same thing with the software itself.)


I suspect it's a transitional stage... people who choose to parasitize

others are generally on the fringes, and the sooner they're brought into

the mainstream then the more the pressures increase for them to actually

produce, rather than just appear to produce.


(iow, as that copying webdesigner gets more contracts, more contacts,

they'll find it less and less sustainable to rip off other people.)
