Lessig 2.0?

There was a rumor floating around that Obama might pick Lessig to run the FCC. Um, guess not -- he wants to demolish it. (Anyone else notice Larry becoming increasingly libertarian lately? It seemed to start with his apology for getting Microsoft wrong in the '90s and more recently we've seen a drastic shift in stance on net neutrality.)

Joe: It took me a while to find it, but I've updated the post with a link -- a Wired column from a year ago. Jim: Thanks for the links -- I hadn't seen that.
