Hers had broken down, and unless she -could borrow another, she would fail her midterm project. There was -no one she dared ask, except Dan. - -<p> -This put Dan in a dilemma. He had to help her--but if he lent her his -computer, she might read his books. Aside from the fact that you -could go to prison for many years for letting someone else read your -books, the very idea shocked him at first. Like everyone, he had been -taught since elementary school that sharing books was nasty and -wrong--something that only pirates would do. - -<p> -And there wasn't much chance that the SPA--the Software Protection -Authority--would fail to catch him. In his software class, Dan had -learned that each book had a copyright monitor that reported when and -where it was read, and by whom, to Central Licensing. (They used this -information to catch reading pirates, but also to sell personal -interest profiles to retailers.) The next time his computer was -networked, Central Licensing would find out. He, as computer owner, -would receive the harshest punishment--for not taking pains to prevent -the crime. - -<p> -Of course, Lissa did not necessarily intend to read his books. She -might want the computer only to write her midterm. But Dan knew she -came from a middle-class family and could hardly afford the tuition, -let alone her reading fees. Reading his books might be the only way -she could graduate. He understood this situation; he himself had had -to borrow to pay for all the research papers he read. (10% of those -fees went to the researchers who wrote the papers; since Dan aimed for -an academic career, he could hope that his own research papers, if -frequently referenced, would bring in enough to repay this loan.) - -<p> -Later on, Dan would learn there was a time when anyone could go to the -library and read journal articles, and even books, without having to -pay. There were independent scholars who read thousands of pages -without government library grants. But in the 1990s, both commercial -and nonprofit journal publishers had begun charging fees for access. -By 2047, libraries offering free public access to scholarly literature -were a dim memory. - -<p> -There were ways, of course, to get around the SPA and Central -Licensing. They were themselves illegal. Dan had had a classmate in -software, Frank Martucci, who had obtained an illicit debugging tool, -and used it to skip over the copyright monitor code when reading -books. But he had told too many friends about it, and one of them -turned him in to the SPA for a reward (students deep in debt were -easily tempted into betrayal). In 2047, Frank was in prison, not for -pirate reading, but for possessing a debugger. - -<p> -Dan would later learn that there was a time when anyone could have -debugging tools. There were even free debugging tools available on CD -or downloadable over the net. But ordinary users started using them -to bypass copyright monitors, and eventually a judge ruled that this -had become their principal use in actual practice. This meant they -were illegal; the debuggers' developers were sent to prison. - -<p> -Programmers still needed debugging tools, of course, but debugger -vendors in 2047 distributed numbered copies only, and only to -officially licensed and bonded programmers. The debugger Dan used in -software class was kept behind a special firewall so that it could be -used only for class exercises. - -<p> -It was also possible to bypass the copyright monitors by installing a -modified system kernel. Dan would eventually find out about the free -kernels, even entire free operating systems, that had existed around -the turn of the century. But not only were they illegal, like -debuggers--you could not install one if you had one, without knowing -your computer's root password. And neither the FBI nor Microsoft -Support would tell you that. - -<p> -Dan concluded that he couldn't simply lend Lissa his computer. But he -couldn't refuse to help her, because he loved her. Every chance to -speak with her filled him with delight. And that she chose him to ask -for help, that could mean she loved him too. - -<p> -Dan resolved the dilemma by doing something even more unthinkable--he -lent her the computer, and told her his password. This way, if Lissa -read his books, Central Licensing would think he was reading them. It -was still a crime, but the SPA would not automatically find out about -it. They would only find out if Lissa reported him. - -<p> -Of course, if the school ever found out that he had given Lissa his -own password, it would be curtains for both of them as students, -regardless of what she had used it for. School policy was that any -interference with their means of monitoring students' computer use was -grounds for disciplinary action. It didn't matter whether you did -anything harmful--the offense was making it hard for the -administrators to check on you. They assumed this meant you were -doing something else forbidden, and they did not need to know what it -was. - -<p> -Students were not usually expelled for this--not directly. Instead -they were banned from the school computer systems, and would -inevitably fail all their classes. - -<p> -Later, Dan would learn that this kind of university policy started -only in the 1980s, when university students in large numbers began -using computers. Previously, universities maintained a different -approach to student discipline; they punished activities that were -harmful, not those that merely raised suspicion. - -<p> -Lissa did not report Dan to the SPA. His decision to help her led to -their marriage, and also led them to question what they had been -taught about piracy as children. The couple began reading about the -history of copyright, about the Soviet Union and its restrictions on -copying, and even the original United States Constitution. They moved -to Luna, where they found others who had likewise gravitated away from -the long arm of the SPA. When the Tycho Uprising began in 2062, the -universal right to read soon became one of its central aims. - -<P> -<h4><A HREF="/philosophy/right-to-read.html#TOCAuthorsNote" - NAME="AuthorsNote">Author's Note</A></h4> - -<p> -The right to read is a battle being fought today. Although it may -take 50 years for our present way of life to fade into obscurity, most -of the specific laws and practices described above have already been -proposed--either by the Clinton Administration or by publishers. - -<p> -There is one exception: the idea that the FBI and Microsoft will keep -the root passwords for personal computers. This is an extrapolation -from the Clipper chip and similar Clinton Administration key-escrow -proposals, together with a long-term trend: computer systems are -increasingly set up to give absentee operators control over the people -actually using the computer system. - -<p> -The SPA, which actually stands for Software Publisher's Association, -is not today an official police force. Unofficially, it acts like -one. It invites people to inform on their coworkers and friends; like -the Clinton Administration, it advocates a policy of collective -responsibility whereby computer owners must actively enforce copyright -or be punished. - -<p> -The SPA is currently threatening small Internet service providers, -demanding they permit the SPA to monitor all users. Most ISPs -surrender when threatened, because they cannot afford to fight back in -court. (Atlanta Journal-Constitution, 1 Oct 96, D3.) At least one -ISP, Community ConneXion in Oakland CA, refused the demand and was -actually <a href="https://www.c2.net/ispdc/">sued</a>. The SPA is said to have -dropped this suit recently, but they are sure to continue the campaign -in various other ways. - -<p> -The university security policies described above are not imaginary. -For example, a computer at one Chicago-area university prints this -message when you log in (quotation marks are in the original): - -<blockquote> -"This system is for the use of authorized users only. Individuals using -this computer system without authority or in the excess of their authority -are subject to having all their activities on this system monitored and -recorded by system personnel. In the course of monitoring individuals -improperly using this system or in the course of system maintenance, the -activities of authorized user may also be monitored. Anyone using this -system expressly consents to such monitoring and is advised that if such -monitoring reveals possible evidence of illegal activity or violation of -University regulations system personnel may provide the evidence of such -monitoring to University authorities and/or law enforcement officials." -</blockquote> - -<p> -This is an interesting approach to the Fourth Amendment: pressure most -everyone to agree, in advance, to waive their rights under it. - -<hr> - -<P> - -<h4><A HREF="/philosophy/right-to-read.html#TOCReferences" -
