Who are computer hackers? What is free software? And what does the emergence of a community dedicated to the production of free and open source software--and to hacking as a technical, aesthetic, and moral project--reveal about the values of contemporary liberalism? Exploring the rise and political significance of the free and open source software (F/OSS) movement in the United States and Europe, Coding Freedom details the ethics behind hackers' devotion to F/OSS, the social codes that guide its production, and the political struggles through which hackers question the scope and direction of copyright and patent law. In telling the story of the F/OSS movement, the book unfolds a broader narrative involving computing, the politics of access, and intellectual property. E. Gabriella Coleman tracks the ways in which hackers collaborate and examines passionate manifestos, hacker humor, free software project governance, and festive hacker conferences. Looking at the ways that hackers sustain their productive freedom, Coleman shows that these activists, driven by a commitment to their work, reformulate key ideals including free speech, transparency, and meritocracy, and refuse restrictive intellectual protections. Coleman demonstrates how hacking, so often marginalized or misunderstood, sheds light on the continuing relevance of liberalism in online collaboration.

The purpose of this exercise is to give a physical analogy between computer code and books. Code is speech.This is a printed copy of .step files for the Liberator, and not much else. Don't expect a gripping narrative; that's being played out in the news and the courts.Proceeds from this book will be used to fight for free speech and the right to keep and bear arms.

The award-winning New York Times bestseller about the American women who secretly served as codebreakers during World War II--a "prodigiously researched and engrossing" (New York Times) book that "shines a light on a hidden chapter of American history" (Denver Post). Recruited by the U.S. Army and Navy from small towns and elite colleges, more than ten thousand women served as codebreakers during World War II. While their brothers and boyfriends took up arms, these women moved to Washington and learned the meticulous work of code-breaking. Their efforts shortened the war, saved countless lives, and gave them access to careers previously denied to them. A strict vow of secrecy nearly erased their efforts from history; now, through dazzling research and interviews with surviving code girls, bestselling author Liza Mundy brings to life this riveting and vital story of American courage, service, and scientific accomplishment.

In the year 1953 the presence of coded Huna information in the Bible was discovered. Since that time the research work has progressed, with a number of additional pieces of coded information uncovered. This book gives not only the later findings, but further expands the study to show similar coded information in the religions of the ancient Egyptians, Israelites, Buddhists and practitioners of Yoga. The complete investigation of the Bible and Gnostic literature has not yet been finished, and the reader who wishes to do so may carry on for himself without much difficulty, once this book has been read and the research method is understood. Yesterday the unveiling of the coded knowledge would have been countered by the Church with burnings and any torture needed for the suppression of heresy. Today, happily, even the humblest Galileo is able safely to take up his telescope and peer into the realms of the new and strange.... . and still forbidden. (From the Forward.) Get Your Copy Today!

Suppose the foundational principle of the Judeo-Christian world had been lost thousands of years ago. How would we know it? We wouldn't-until it was rediscovered. Richard L. Haight, three-time award-winning author, has uncovered and decoded an ancient principle that has lain dormant, hidden for thousands of years within Genesis, the first book of The Holy Bible. When decoded, Genesis reveals a mystical yet surprisingly practical approach to human experience that leads to profound inner freedom. Haight believes it is the lost truth of Jesus some 2,000 years ago when he said, "Know the truth and the truth will set you free." But actualizing freedom takes more than just knowledge. Freedom of any kind requires commitment and follow-through. Considering how busy we are in the modern world, our time is precious. With that time-saving aim in mind, first make sure The Genesis Code aligns with your objectives. Do you desire freedom from compulsive self-absorption, arrogance, resentment, and condemnation? Do you seek liberation from the seemingly endless cycles of blame, shame, and guilt? Do you want to be free from unhelpful thoughts and beliefs and the torments of anxiety and emotional depression―regret of your past and fear of your future? Do you want freedom from that which misleads your mind and emotions? Do you want to be fully You in all aspects of your life? If you want to know the truth that sets you free, then The Genesis Code might be for you. Open your eyes to see that which once seen can never be unseen. Open to the true nature of the Universe, the earth, and the human being. Open to the true You.
