The ability to continue to produce art without permission from the latter-day aristocracy of creativity is central to both cultural and economic progress. Whether it's bedroom DJs, garage innovators, or scientists in an advanced research laboratory, we don't want them consulting with attorneys all the time about the legality of what they're doing. Nor do we want them asking technologists for the encryption keys before they can even begin to engage in an act of creative enterprise. So much of what makes a free society and free economy healthy and vibrant is that we have limited the control points in a way that permits creation and experimentation in a largely anarchistic fashion.
