Have you changed from a Soviet imperialist into an American imperialist? Don't you realize that parallelism can be exploited in politics as well as in routing? Create millions of small opportunities for Chinese people to share information and they will do the rest.
Can we move this thread entirely to com-priv, please? Somehow, this reminds me of Godwin's Law, and a couple of associated corollaries: "As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one." - "Godwin's Law of Nazi Analogies", Mike Godwin, EFF staff counsel. "As global connectivity improves, the probability of actual Nazis being on the net approaches one." - "Van der Leun's Corollary to Godwin's Law", Gerard Van der Leun, former EFF Cambridge office director. This corollary is already proven. "Thread bandwidth consumption increases in inverse proportion to thread content quality." - "McCandlish's Second Corollary to the Wilcox/McCandlish Law", Stanton McCandlish, EFF online activist; 1995. On second thought, this thread actually reminds me of Sturgeon's Law: "90% of everything is crap." - "Sturgeon's Law", Theodore Sturgeon - paul - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
