great posts, Ken!

wondering whether there are two bubbles - the internet bubble - think 
the dates were 1998 - 2001? - and now a spam bubble? like some evil 
black hole thats going to consume the whole thing?

if i ever saw a good idea being perverted here is it.

i notice that berners lee got a million quid from finland recently. 
perhaps if someone were to solve the problem, they ought to get some 
dosh too?
i get the feeling it wont be one person who will do but a collective.

isnt lessig on to the problem with his bounty hunters? perhaps a 2 keys 
solution, Kerberos, that ken mentioned,  will do the trick?

Alex
