enclosure movement in the sense I and e.g. Volker Grassmuck (http://waste.informatik.hu-berlin.de/grassmuck/Texts/spinner-wissenskomm.html http://waste.informatik.hu-berlin.de/grassmuck/Texts/spinner...) used, means taking/claiming common land by putting a fence around it. Thats how the wild west worked basicly. The natives haven't had the concept of property. And we don't see our own private data as "our property" as well - which pages we use, which products we buy, which X we like, where we work, adresses and so on. It isn't property, it is us and we should be able to decide what others do with those expressions. If companies earn money with it, we should profit from it as well. Don't you think. Google profits from that and in exchange we can use their services. Often we do know that we are the product. Having certain informations at certain online service deleted might just spawn new startups offering to do just that for your customers and your convenience. Gaining the trust of customers is a good thing imho.
