The idea of conditional use gives a person with absolute writes the ability to emancipate there information. It also alows parts of a work to be given away as a lost leader to advertize a restricted portion of work. It likewize allows a person to give conditional permition to its use. These are valid points as the nature of internet information that is compiled from a variety of souces may containe parts that the originator would prefer to exercise ownership writes. In the event that hardware or software can be effectivly use to enforce a proprietary scheme, it should also allow people the freedom not to use restrictive technowlegy and to use unrestricted technowledgy. I find it interesting that this discustion is about the difference that describes free as in "not costing any money" vs. freedom as in being able to know what is being done to you or what you are doing (to be conciouse of your actions).
