Digital rights *management*.
*Managed* care (health)
And with Diebold audit-less voting machines, Constitutional Rights *Management*.
What we are seeing here is the ascendency of the administrative, the meddling of middle-management in fields as diverse as engineering, medicine, and our basic rights as citizens.
This is my first post. "Make" hits the target re. the inherent subversiveness of the do-it-yourself ethic in a society where picking up a screwdriver is tantamount to an act of rebellion. I'll be subscribing shortly and getting the back-issues. If this is as good as it sounds, you're going to stir up quite a storm.Posted by gg2 on June 12, 2005 at 20:12:27 Pacific Time
