Hmm, it could be fun to watch, but I don't think it's unimaginable.
We've already had RIAA hassling twits who thought it was okay to steal
music.  I can well imagine other big booted organisations deciding that
it was time to apply Darwin principles to some plebs on the net.  Who

laws.

Hm, I can see reckless driving as applied to computers. Maybe we're onto
