Anarchy update: The black marketeers at Silk Road 2 got robbed for a Bitcoin amount worth over $2 million at current exchange rates. Iran shut down another black market ring, Germany and the Netherlands have joined the global hunt to shut down Silk Road and spinoffs. Keep in mind these online black markets are used for drugs, hired killings, child pornography, human sex trafficking, and anything else you can think of that’s a problem in society. They try to say “Oh it’s just pot,” but it’s not. It never is.

In another bad sign for digital currencies. another prominent digital currency, Dogecoin, is experiencing a major glitch that threatens to disrupt commerce or even take people’s money away from them.

By the way, it turns out FCC may be trying to bully the firms it regulates into remaining silent on dissenting opinions about FCC decisions.

I love it when even the leftists have to admit competition works.

Are Internet trolls dangerous psychopaths?

The fact that copyright is of limited term creates wealth in the long run. It’s time we stopped playing Mickey Mouse games and returned copyright to a reasonable, limited length.
