I smell a dystopia here. I can understand that, for some people, this kind of writing can be eye opening, but it is in no way based on reality. The logistics of a corporation pulling this kind of thing off are pretty astronomical, considering how many of us are in opposition. I don't remember where I read this, but it goes something like this:

Laws regulate men
Men can't be regulated
Laws don't affect men

Not very gender friendly, but you get the idea.

Anyway, the point is that if people have to make decisions for themselves. In other words, if enough people break a law, then it isn't worth anything anymore. Many laws are like that today. In the future, more laws will be ignored as the Government strives to educate the masses (even with their biased views). Just wait till the educated masses refuse to follow a law. Try putting over 50% of the country in jail. I think that there are enough people out there who, if faced with the described situation, would be among the subversives that the corproations couldn't hold power. But then, since Subverse.NET has patents on these ideas, I guess I'm already in trouble.

Long live open source.
