[p2p-research] The Thorny Triangle: Cyber Conflict

I'm trying to figure out what the hell Clay Shirky was trying to say with, "
Behavior is just motivation filtered through opportunity."

Since I don't have access to him, perhaps someone else could explain.

This is exactly why I learned to program. And, why I learned to
design/make/fix/grow/process/distribute/manage things and resources.
In turn, if many, many people are to learn these skills, I think this
is where open licenses and commons-based approaches become important.
