- Infoanarchism
Infoanarchism is an
umbrella term for various groups of people who are opposed to forms ofintellectual property , such ascopyright andpatent s. The term was coined in a "TIME Magazine " article about Ian Clarke, known as the original designer and lead developer ofFreenet , called "The Infoanarchist" in July 2000. Theanti-copyright movement includes a wide range of groups and views and infoanarchists have emerged as part of the broadercopyright social conflict andcopyright debate.Infoanarchists may use
anonymous P2P networks, likeFreenet , Entropy, Tor orI2P , to help protect their anonymity. These anonymous networks make it difficult for observers, or any middleman, to determine what traffic is going across the network. Such technology may serve to protect people who wish to publish or receive digital files anonymously, like corporate whistleblowers, political dissidents, or groups that engage in the deliberate infringement of copyright law.ee also
