I hate to say it, but reflecting on my recent post on Flickr's Ides of March, I can't but help to think that talking a "digital bill of rights" is a bit trite, and seems wholly ignorant of the fact that a great number of people in other parts of the world still lack basic \*offline\* rights. Way to think, poindexter. I can see you have your priorities straight. Ho boy.
