Purely hypothetical, what would be a good extropian attitude to take if
it could be shown that the most serious danger in the short-term future
would be the rise of ubiquitious law enforcement? Personally I see this
as a more immediate threat than the oft-discussed nanowar scenario.
If a worker in Nazi-occupied Europe throws a monkey wrench into the
machinery, is he a Luddite?
