"While most of the rest of the world keeps ratcheting up copyright laws by
increasing enforcement and terms, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev appears
to be going in the other direction. He's now proposing that Russia build
Creative Commons-style open and free licenses directly into Russian
copyright law. This comes just a few days after he also chided other G8
leaders for their antiquated views on copyright."

The biggest challenge of the 21st century is the irony of technologies of
abundance in the hands of those thinking in terms of scarcity.
