A DECLARATION OF THE INDEPENDENCE OF CYBERSPACE
Èü°Ø¿Õ¼ä¶ÀÁ¢ÐûÑÔ
Governments of the Industrial World you weary giants of flesh and steel I come from Cyberspace the new home of Mind. On behalf of the future I ask you of the past to leave us alone. You are not welcome among us. You have no sovereignty where we gather.

We have no elected government nor are we likely to have one so I address you with no greater authority than that with which liberty itself always speaks. I declare the global social space we are building to be naturally independent of the tyrannies you seek to impose on us. You have no moral right to rule us nor do you possess any methods of enforcement we have true reason to fear.

Governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed. You have neither solicited nor received ours. We did not invite you. You do not know us nor do you know our world. Cyberspace does not lie within your borders. Do not think that you can build it as though it were a public construction project. You cannot. It is an act of nature and it grows itself through our collective actions.

You claim there are problems among us that you need to solve. You use this claim as an excuse to invade our precincts. Many of these problems don¡¯t exist. Where there are real conflicts where there are wrongs we will identify them and address them by our means. We are forming our own Social Contract . This governance will arise according to the conditions of our world not yours. Our world is different.

Cyberspace consists of transactions relationships and thought itself arrayed like a standing wave in the web of our communications. Ours is a world that is both everywhere and nowhere but it is not where bodies live.

Our identities have no bodies so unlike you we cannot obtain order by physical coercion. We believe that from ethics enlightened self-interest and the commonweal our governance will emerge . Our identities may be distributed across many of your jurisdictions. The only law that all our constituent cultures would generally recognize is the Golden Rule. We hope we will be able to build our particular solutions on that basis. But we cannot accept the solutions you are attempting to impose.

You are terrified of your own children since they are natives in a world where you will always be immigrants. Because you fear them you entrust your bureaucracies with the parental responsibilities you are too cowardly to confront yourselves. In our world all the sentiments and expressions of humanity from the debasing to the angelic are parts of a seamless whole the global conversation of bits. We cannot separate the air that chokes from the air upon which wings beat.

Your increasingly obsolete information industries would perpetuate themselves by proposing laws in America and elsewhere that claim to own speech itself throughout the world. These laws would declare ideas to be another industrial product no more noble than pig iron. In our world whatever the human mind may create can be reproduced and distributed infinitely at no cost. The global conveyance of thought no longer requires your factories to accomplish.

These increasingly hostile and colonial measures place us in the same position as those previous lovers of freedom and self-determination who had to reject the authorities of distant uninformed powers. We must declare our virtual selves immune to your sovereignty even as we continue to consent to your rule over our bodies. We will spread ourselves across the Planet so that no one can arrest our thoughts.
