It is always fascinating to read an article on 
how one takes control of identity, the Internet 
ontology, transactions etc, and at the bottom 
of the page is

"(* You must be a member of the O'Reilly Network to use this feature.) 
Comment on this Article "

Everyone wants to rule the world, or at least, 
the part they assert they own.  And as far as I can tell, 
there is no realistic way around it unless some 
parts of the operation are public utilities.  

Does that mean the global registry services MUST 
be public utilities?  In other words, MS or IBM 
or whomever is allowed to sell the software to 
create these but never allowed to own both?
