Benjamin Chiao gives an example to show how open source companies can exclude people from using free software, thereby effectively privatising it:
“Over the last four years, the author measured the time needed to download various versions of Red Hat Linux, from 5.2 In September 2002, the author spent about 10 hours to download this software through the Internet. In a 2003 essay, BENJAMIN HAK-FUNG CHIAO makes the startling claim that FOSS is actually Private Property, not in the legal sense, which creates a fictional Common Property, but in a economic sense, as individuals and companies can effectively exclude others from using it, thereby achieving one of the key characteristics of private property.

These stayed largely under the radar until 2002, when a client called Trillian hit 1 million downloads (and then jumped to 5 million six months later).
Prompted by the application’s growing popularity and incensed by the fact that A while ago, Robert Young had already predicted that the interoperability of instant messaging services with each other, and with the social networking sites, may lead to a quantum leap of filesharing potential :

Equality important was the Manchester event on November 3, which I consider the birth of a “Open Infrastructure” movement. But in other words, open infrastructures that contribute to the autonomy of communities taking care of their livelihoods, through action and production.
One on collaborative platforms for social action, and one on collaborative platforms for open and distributed manufacturing.

Baldwin and Eric von Hippel have produced a useful synthetic report explaining why user-led open innovation is displacing producer led innovation, why the former is beneficial for social welfare, but held back by regulations and IP protections dating from an era where only the second form was deemed functional.

Back in 2004 I did have some discussion with staff about how blogging might be useful as part of their communications and work with groups … but the open style didn’t appeal. My advice was simple - open up, start blogging back. Freedom of Information request by Conservative MP Philip Davies uncovered the fact that the Department for Work and Pensions had spent £238,000 sending Some years back I went on a course run by Common Purpose , during which over a year a group of us made visits to schools, prisons, newspaper offices and the like, and took part in discussions all in the pursuit of civil leadership.

Johnson, 1997; Jørgensen & Udsen, 2005; Turkle, 1997) are articulated and coexist with the processes through which software encodes user input according to material (Hayles, 2004; Manovich, 2002), ideological (Chun, 2005), and legal (Grimelmann, 2005; Lessig, 2006) logics. spaces should also be considered as platforms in their own right, because they articulate protocols in different ways to operationalize different logics, for instance, open-source or private.
