Hahaha

I like it. Suspicious looking envelopes. p2p as (art) terrorism? Very Hakim Bey.

If it’s not branded by a megacorp, don’t pick it up? What sad times we live in, when we’ve been brainwashed into fearing anything out of the ordinary.

Hell, we could use plastic baggies to prove there are no bombs inside… But then, they might get picked up by narcs;-)

Yeah, as a “suspicious-looking package” left on public transport, i could see police etc taking them away to be tested and detonated.

It is littering. It’s constructive littering to counter all of the junk mail, advertising-heavy, content-lite rubbish stuffed in our faces every day. People have come to expect anything free to be worthless, which doesn’t have to be the case at all.

We’re social creatures. We share stuff. Always have.

A lot of people want to stop that happening because they THINK they MAY be losing A FEW BUCKS. Yeah, lets change human nature so some megacorps can maybe make a few extra bucks.

They can keep their precious copyrighted shit. I’m going to dump free stuff everywhere I can.

Sounds like littering to me, much like those little signs by the roadway.

Would you pick an envelope off a street in Iraq? I wouldn’t even do that here in the US? What if the envelope goes KABOOM!!!

Maybe I didn’t get it right, but…

1. Print something you want to share, like the binary dump of an .ogg file, and put it in this special envelope.
2. Find a place and leave the envelope there, making sure you won’t get arrested by the FBI’s paper-sharing crime division.
3. Not necessarily get anything in return.

Overal: Too much of a hassle.
