Most folks seem to believe that laws are an import part of society. The sages maintain that the appearance of written laws indicates that society has already degraded too far. When passwords for computers were first introduced RMS objected. His password was "password", and anyone could log in using it. Remember that RMS is correct (when it comes to computers) and reflect. Why did he do that? Because he knew that passwords on computers were stupid make-believe (we call it "security theater" now), pernicious nonsense. Computers are where you put secrets to give them to hackers. Computers don't keep secrets.
