Once you are inside you are too pre-occupied in protecting what you are inside of. Change will never come from inside.

It makes no longer a difference, or is it worthwhile to distinguish, between corporate and gov. It is one long chain of domination, no borders, no nations, no private/public separation. One huge system of control. But minds can unplug themselves of the system of illusion. There should be no need for security in a free world/system. Isn't this where unix started from? No locks, no doors, no borders. Instead we are preoccupied in drawing 2 dimensional limits under the eye in the 3rd dimension. Multilingual wikipedia is probably the only thing worth saving from this civilization. -- "The most violent element in society is ignorance" rEG "Who died and made you the superuser?" Brooklinux
