I just noticed this
Oct. 14, 2008 post from Wired, which includes a poll allowing readers to nominate and vote for their own choices for White House IP Czar. It should come as little surprise that the list is heavily populated by the heroes of the copyleft, including
Larry Lessig (1160 votes at the time of my post here), "Nobody" (625),
The Pirate Bay (668)
Ray Beckerman (527), and
Richard Stallman (405). Lessig is actually nominated three times and Stallman twice; perhaps understandable, given the copyleft's views on copying...
