First sentence: At the endof his review of my ﬁrst book,Code:And Other Laws of 
Cyberspace, David Pogue, a brilliant writer and author of countless 
technical and computer-related texts,wrote this: 
Unlike actual law,Internet software has no capacity to punish.It 
doesn’t affect people who aren’t online (and only a tiny minority 
of the world population is). And if you don’t like the Internet’s 
system,you can always ﬂip off the modem.
