I like what is said until the paragraph on Steven Levy's work (the antepenultimate one). This paragraph draws a conclusion that I don't agree with, and more than that I'm not sure it can be drawn from what is said before.
I see the aesthetic aspect of the hacker culture. Without being as explicit, it is what RMS talks about in his similar essay (the one with the chopsticks story) in my opinion.
However, denying the ethical aspect entirely is wrong. I see it as an equally important part, and I fear that rejecting it entirely is a symptom of a rejection of anything political, which is a behavior I can't understand, and that I even find somewhat dangerous.
