The blog comments have more concentrated error of fact than I've seen in
one place for quite a while. Use of an Internet alias, for example, is only
illegal if used for purposes of concealing illegal activity (like to commit
fraud), just like in the real world.

That said, Lessig's talk was very good, and right on point I'd say. The
expansion of the definition of copyright have made it very difficult for
people to avoid inadvertent violations, and something needs to be done to
help solve the problem.
