In the years 1791 to 1850, laws were passed that trade guilds abolished donors permissions to run a business. But as we talk about "the permissionless innovation" today, and see how these companies "to permissionless" often break old rules, we realize that the requirement for a permit to run a business never disappeared . the government has seized the issue of authorization for himself
Before we call free enterprise laws, companies are governed by the trade guilds. These were indeed the industry associations ( "guilds") laying down rules for all companies that want to be part of a particular industry, and it had to respect the rules of the guild, or you would not be allowed to run a business all this typically meant tightly controlled prices and competition within the guild, and companies were generally what we call today craftsman -.. a single person or a small family of craftsmen
the spread of Hatter Act the French Revolution in 1791, trades were stripped of all their power, and "free enterprise" established - the freedom to run a business without ask permission to do, freedom to compete freely, set your own price, offer some service was attractive, and so on. Or people said, anyway. Specifically, so the government words, governments that have adopted such laws. The laws gradually spread worldwide so Western, having essentially completed the abolition of trade guilds everywhere by 1850.
The concept of "free enterprise" means that you have had more to do as the trade guild ordered, return customers to competitors by the orders of the guild, the load rates of the guild, and so on. On the surface, it looks good. In fact, a thriving business.
However, today we can observe that "permissionless innovation" exists, in the sense that it is a term which carries a kind of sense. But if we can not first permission to run a business and invent and compete, according to these laws, how can it be something to run permissionlessly
Permissionless enterprise - free enterprise - was an illusion all along. You just need the permission of someone else: the government. Before that you had - have - you are not allowed to run a business. The whole "free enterprise" thing was an illusion all along
The examples of organizations that have run permissionlessly and contravene something are legio -. Uber-known brands such as The Pirate Bay and many, many small start-up that has never been known as. The common factor is that they built something without asking permission, provided a useful and popular service for many people, and were labeled criminals for it.
What we can see today is that we are still just as necessary to obtain authorization to operate a business that we were at the time of the trade guild. The effect of laws "free enterprise" of 1791 was passed forward especially as we had to ask government permission for all rather than the trade guild.
So with people who choose to run "permissionlessly", we finally arrived in an era of free enterprise, governments of something said that we established in 1850 worldwide Western. But today, it is not free enterprise because we do not ask permission commercial guilds (as opposed to governments); today, it's free enterprise because we do not ask permission all more. The difference is striking. In addition, governments are all in arms about it.
This matters a lot to privacy and free Internet.
When you look at today's governments, their actions around the world to introduce censorship, bottlenecks, traceability, monitoring, responsibility for the messenger, as well as obstacles publication, anonymity and private correspondence. Only excuses differ. What people in general are doing - should be doing - is to protect the Internet against governments. People do it in all forms: as individual as informal networks, and companies
And obviously, you're not going to get permission from the government to protect the Internet against the government ..
therefore, we have finally arrived at a time of free enterprise. But we have not done with the help of lawmakers. In fact, lawmakers will fight free real business in the name of their Permissioned so-called "free enterprise", which actually means just an obligation to seek permission from the government.
But as long as we don 't do that, we can still lift the NSA, the FRA, GCHQ, and all the others who are trying to destroy privacy and other freedoms. And we must do so without asking permission. For the first time, we really free enterprise, and it is proving to be vital for freedom.
Privacy is really your own responsibility.
