Law in the Internet Society

Introduction

In this paper I want to examine Moglen's argument regarding the way in which freedom emerges under the conditions of an internet society. I intend to engage with Moglen's arguments from a skeptical position and interrogate whether his definition of an "internet society" privileges the anarchic production methods quite as much as he suggests.

Specifically, I want to engage the arguments of Stark and Neff in "Permanently Beta" and Noam's arguments in "The Economics of User Generated Content and Peer-to-Peer: The Commons as the Enabler of Commerce" since both of these suggest to that the method of production occurs only under a narrower set of conditions than those under which Moglen has elaborated.
