Code is Law
By Lawrence Lessig
Quotation:
"We are at a stage in our history when we urgently need to make fundamental choices about values, but we should trust no institution of government to make such choices. Courts cannot do it, because as a legal culture we don ’t want courts choosing among contested matters of values. Congress should not do it because, as a political culture, we are deeply skeptical (and rightly so) about the product of this government. There is much to be proud of in our history and traditions. But the government we now have is a failure. Nothing important should be trusted to its control, even though everything important is."
Definition:
Culture these days refers to the chosen values and ideals of our modern society, so for the cyber-culture this would mean that it is a culmination of free-thinkers who express themselves throughout the various media formats available on the internet.
