Welcome!
This website will discuss this article:"A Decleration of the Independence of Cyberspace"
This is a quote from the article that I found particularly intriguing:"You do not know our culture, our ethics, or the unwritten codes that already provide our society more order than could be obtained by any of your impositions"
This quote reminds me of a novel by Octavia Butler:
One could argue that the entire article acts as a commentary on societal structures that we experience today. The Cyberspace has made so much progress in a short amount of time, this distinction does not function as a sign of hope, but more so to shame other nations that could have been making progress as well. This line sticks out to me the most: "the unwritten codes that already provide our society more order", this is particularly significant because this society does not have to highlight "codes" for their citizens to follow. They simply live a life free of prejudice that is inclusive and fair. The image above is a novel that reminds me of the Cyberspace writing. In the dystopian world that Butler has created the government has crumbled and those that are left have to fend for themselves and create a whole new reality.
