Abstract:
The future of the digital revolution is being disputed. On one side are
the ones who fight for the freedom of the knowledge, proposing free
circulation of information through the Internet; on the other side are
the powerful economical and political interests, trying to block the
socialization of the knowledge and to make the Internet yet another
ground for capital acumulation and reprodution of the inequality
