Fighting for Openness (Hint: It's not FB or even AAPL)

I have spent most of this morning reading reactions and thoughts about Facebook’s “Open Graph” via Techmeme, Tumblr, Twitter and comments to my post and Fred’s post.  All of it has me convinced that the power of the web will be stronger than any one company.  That is with one important caveat: what we can do on the web has to stay as open as it is today!  This is why I believe the real fight is not with or between Google or Facebook or even Apple.  The real fight is for net neutrality and against endeavors such as the finally officially released ACTA (International) and the recently passed Digital Economy Bill (UK).  We all need to let our representatives know that maintaining the freedoms on the net is central to our future.
