香港是文明的Hong Kong is Civilized
机场有免费 Wi-Fi，还用我多说吗？好吧，真正让人窒息的是机场和现代旅行中那种失控感。排队。等待。坐在飞机上。系好安全带。收起小桌板。拉下遮光板。上网冲浪又是什么？眼前是一个空白的地址栏——去吧，去任何你想去的地方。就像在《黑客帝国》中，当身体被禁锢时，心灵渴望漫游。许多政府在限制公民行动自由的同时，若能给予他们精神上的自由，就能大大减轻他们的痛苦。网络是强大的，它的根在美国——因为它输出的正是美国最经典的美德：自由。
Free wifi in the airport, need I say more? Ok, what is stifling about airports and modern travel is the lack of control. Stand in line. Wait. Sit on the plane. Fasten your seatbelt. Put away your tray table. Close the windowshade. What is web-surfing? Here’s a blank location bar – now go, wherever you will. As in the Matrix, when your body is confined, the mind wishes to roam. Many a government could ease the suffering of its citizens by offering them mental freedom when it imposes physical confinement. The web is powerful and American in its origins in that it exports the one classic American virtue – freedom.
