[governance] Rebuilding Egypt's Governance System

[JFC Morfin]

Dear Salanieta,

the point you raise is extremely important for us all. The recent 
political unrest and changes in Arabic countries show that the 
digital network, practices and availability belonged to the blood and 
flesh of every country. This is the same as justice, liberty, human rights.

This is why we need a 33rd articles in HR to deal with this aspect. 
This article will probably forged in the coming national 
constitutions. It should probabl (basy deal with the right to 
digitally exists (a person centric information society), to own 
digital goods (author's rights [different from business copyroghts], 
sites, address, domain name, privacy protection, referents, etc.), 
the right to send (the right to encrypt), the right to freely receive 
only what we want (netneutrality, spam, advertizing, intox), and the 
right to associate, supported by short-term agreement and contracts 
(operance and netiquette), mid-terms rules and laws (governance and 
cultures), and long-term architectural constitution (adminance and 
civilizations) at person's intelligent digital use level.

Also, the way these things developped show that democracy is out. 
Democracy is based upon one man one vote. When the President wants, 
the way Banks permit. The network has introduced a new society and a 
new kind of state based upon dedication, competence, direct influence 
of everyone, shared responsibility, consensus, etc. where people ca 
directly relate tpgether and with the rest of the world; This is a 
new form of societal government one can call polycracy. Based upon 
soubsidiarity and suppleance, national diversity and unity. The 
Internet State is underway, which will progressively the Guttemberg 
State, with everyone's access to the law. A different brand new world 
even if the  increase in the price of the crude and other motivations 
made m the FED empire to help. This goes much further than that.

Also, an independant grassroot communication network technology, 
independent from the ISP infrastructure (based on wifi, optical local 
meshed network, telephone vacation, high compression techniques, FEC 
for one shot forwarding, etc.) could be a citizen, lilitary, survival task.
