January Issue: Internet Liberation: Alive or Dead?

by The Editors

January 5th, 2006

On Monday, January 9th, Cato Unbound will unleash its second issue: “Internet Liberation: Alive or Dead?”

An all-star lineup of techno-visionaries will discuss what, if anything, is left of all those mid-nineties prophesies of radical internet liberation. Virtual reality pioneer Jaron Lanier will lead off with his wild ride of a lead essay, “The Gory Antigora.” Over the next to week, we’ll roll out reaction essays by open source software guru Eric S. Raymond, John Perry Barlow of the Electronic Frontier Foundation, Glenn “Instapundit” Reynolds, and Yale computer scientist David Gelernter, each grappling with Lanier’s vision, and offering their own wisdom on what the Internet still has to offer for the future of freedom.
