I don't believe anyone has a right to a monopoly on information, even if they created it. I don't believe in the validity of intellectual property in general. Even 5, 10, or 20 years is a compromise. The Library of Congress is jus

On that topic, does anyone know about a good alternative that can be used just for a secure SMS number? Google Voice has been mentioned several times but it's unclear to me how that helps.
