> code itself is apolitical I suggest you read Larry Lessig's Code 2.0 book.

  I do not believe "read a 426-page book" should be considered a reasonable response here. At best this response is short-sighted.

  You could at least post a link or say why this is a good book to read. While we are suggesting books I think "The Making of the Atomic Bomb" is a great work highlighting the political motives behind the making of the 20th centuries most important "tool".

    The book is pretty much a thesis on why code is law, and therefore very political.

      I can't put police at your door, whatever code I write.

        You can literally disallow speech, by restricting what can be said. Or remove your ability to speak to people by shadow-banning you.
