Let’s call it what it is. The geography of the planet has been fully mapped, demarcated and corralled by the system of private property (otherwise known as “enclosure“) with the rare exception of dwindling public spaces, reserves and parks (and our various temporary autonomous zones). The next frontiers are interior territories: the mind, DNA and cyberspace.
Will this be the future of the Internet, in which the only commons will be virtual bioparks? If you don’t like this scenario, take control and be active. We need to be vigilant protectors of the commons which was built with public money.
