-"https://titanpad.com/PNLv6jIhPK How big media uses technology and the law to "
-"lock down culture and control creativity. \"Free Culture is an entertaining "
-"and important look at the past and future of the cold war between the media "
-"industry and new technologies.\" \"Free Culture\" goes beyond illuminating "
-"the catastrophe to our culture of increasing regulation to show examples of "
-"how we can make a different future. These new style heroes and examples are "
-"rooted in the traditions of the founding fathers in ways that seem obvious "
-"after reading this book. Recommended reading to those trying to unravel the "
-"shrill hype around 'intellectual property.'\" Lawrence Lessig, “the most "
-"important thinker on intellectual property in the Internet era” (The New "
-"Yorker), masterfully argues that never before in human history has the power "
-"to control creative progress been so concentrated in the hands of the "
-"powerful few, the so-called Big Media. Never before have the cultural "
-"powers- that-be been able to exert such control over what we can and can’t "
-"do with the culture around us. Our society defends free markets and free "
-"speech; why then does it permit such top-down control? To lose our long "
-"tradition of free culture, Lawrence Lessig shows us, is to lose our freedom "
-"to create, our freedom to build, and, ultimately, our freedom to imagine."
