What are the best laws that can be created in the best jurisdictions to operate this sort of stuff from? And practical everyday legal defense. Saying that their work is valuable, and encouraging people to take it up. Politically that also means protecting them politically, and incentivizing them in a political manner. Technically that means anonymizing and protecting sources in a wide variety of ways. Politically that means anonymizing and protecting. not for all three phases but for the political component, the philosophical component and the engineering component in pushing out first component. So WikiLeaks was and is an attempt - although still very young - at a total system. So that's a high level construct, but of course it then comes down to practically how do you engineer a system that solves that problem? And not just a technical system, but a total system. People who work information and distribute it are journalists and publishers. In a Fourth Estate context the people who acquire information are sources. The bottleneck to me appeared to me to be primarily in the acquisition of information that would go on to produce changes that were just. which is partly derived from my experiences in quantum mechanics about looking at the flow of particular types of information which will effect some change in the end. Or just as produced by the Fourth Estate. We can look at this whole process as the Fourth Estate. And often the last step as well when it came to information that governments were inclined to censor. The problem I saw was that this first step was crippled. of moving information from people who have it to people who want it. And so you can argue that companies like Google are involved, for example, in this "middle" business of taking. I felt that there was a difficulty in taking observations and putting them in an efficient way into a distribution system which could then get this information to people who could act upon it. These are three separate problems that are all coupled together. And in the middle there are people who are involved in moving information from the observers to the people who will act on information. And there are other people that are receiving information that they haven't observed first hand. So the question then arises as to what kinds of information will produce behaviour which is just? And disincentivise behaviour which is unjust? So all around the world there are people observing different parts of what is happening to them locally. And therefore you can change the behaviour of many people with a small amount of information. But what they know can be affected in a nonlnear way because when one person conveys information to another they can convey on to another and another and so on in a way that nonlinear and so you can affect a lot of people with a small amount of information. That is that their inclinations and biological temperament haven't changed much over thousands of years and so therefore the only playing field left is: what do they have? And what do they know? And "have" is something that is fairly hard to influence, so that is what resources do they have at their disposal? And how much energy they can harness, and what are the supplies and so on. So in considering how unjust acts are caused and what tends to promote them and what promotes just acts I saw that human beings are basically invariant. And so that avoids, then, getting into further unhelpful discussions about why you want to do something. And it is an axiom because it is that way. And one can sort of say, well what are your philosophical axioms for this? And I say I do not need to consider them. Don't Panic, mods will review it ASAP.And I wanted there to be more just acts, and fewer unjust acts. Post/comment not appearing? It may have entered our AutoModerator's event horizon.
