Deploying the Wisdom of Crowds Against Badware

In today's CNet's "Perspectives" is a piece by Profs. John Palfrey and Jonathan Zittrain titled, "Deploying the wisdom of crowds against badware."

At the core of their Perspectives piece (and of Stopbadware.org, the effect they lead here) is their "view that the best solution to badware is to draw upon the wisdom and behavior of the Internet community. We believe that tens of millions of computer users, facilitated to collective action by some of the very tools found within spyware, can create a more accountable Internet."
