Stanford represents the very type of monopoly on learning and knowledge that Lessig purports to oppose. But, this particular monopoly feathers his particular nest, so I guess he thinks it's OK. That's the point, not your irrelevant quibble about the definition of a "fortune," nor even less what Charles Barkley "once said."

And, apparently, Lessig was NOT upfront about where the money would go if he didn't run. The notice to that effect was put on Act Blue sometime after he announced his "exploratory committee" and asked for donations. In any event, Lessig denounced PACs and refused to take any PAC money. But now he is forming his own PAC. You don't see any problem there?

And stop poisoning the well. No, I don't work for the music business. This has nothing to do with music. I never even once mentioned it. Believe it or not, there are people in the world who don't think the world revolves around the issues of music downloads and the like.
