"Something like a massive land grab is going on. Those involved in the knowledge economy only dimly perceive its effects. Those involved in other fields, too, know something is going on: there's the strange way one's name and address gets passed from database to database, for instance, despite laws against it.

But if, in order to publish, he is forced to sign over his rights 'in any and all media and by any and all means now known or hereafter invented, throughout the world and all parts of the universe, in any and all languages', as typical media contracts now have it, he may prefer to stay silent. The one good thing about being a lone voice in the wilderness is that nobody owns you."
