Apple & Steve Jobs, the Monopolist

Here's Cory Doctorow, a guy who lives by ethical rules, taking on Apple and Steve Jobs who live by the rule of the jungle ("the powerful devour the weak")...



I'm a really big fan of Cory Doctorow and his cause, the fight to keep copyright and other "intellectual" property rights under control so that ordinary people can do ordinary things without fear. The laws are too skewed to the advantage of big corporate interests who totally disregard the "little guy" and their need to access culture without all the legal barricades that corporate lawyers love to lay down. I think Cory Doctorow is not just talking the talk, but walking the walk. Others should follow his lead.
