“It’s as if we’ve landed on Mars and we’re constructing a commercial and business setting.”

— THOMAS VARTANIAN

Chair of the American Bar Association’s Committee on the Law of Cyberspace

That comment, from the article Net may need cyber-borders, really speaks to the megolomaniacal nature of attorneys these days. Listen folks, just because there’s no laywers running the Internet doesn’t mean it’s not an organized domain. It’s not like Mars at all, it’s like the Bar Association arrived in Columbus, Ohio, saw a lack of lawyers, and decide to take over. Fucking legal imperialism is what it is, and I’m not even one of those crazy Ayn Rand freaks.
