That is starting to look like a major aspect of my current research position and potentially a major direction of my PhD. At the moment the Global Brain Institute's main priority is coming up with "most likely GB scenarios" and all involve planning for a post-government and post-corporate planet of distributed, non-hierarchical intelligence. Bringing this world into existence will require reducing social and physical friction and increasing social and physical stigmergy to the highest degrees possible (as described by Francis Heylighen in "Accelerating Socio-technological evolution" a must-read IMO).Have you given any thought to the legal repercussions of a "Global Brain" and what type of new legal challenges it will bring?
