Why is it that so many cypherpunks like the economist?
The Economist is my favorite magazine (my parents' too). I don't read it regularly, but that has more to do with my being busy than anything else. It succeeds in providing fairly balanced in-depth coverage of international news that isn't terribly Amerocentric or Anglocentric. At worst it's G7-centric, but I think that's entirely reasonable ;) It's witty, politically aware, relatively technically savvy. The articles exhibit a healthy (IMHO) cynicism about what happens and why, yet maintain some idealism about what should happen. It's not perfect, but it's difficult to imagine surpassing it. I recently read an interview with Bill Gates in which he was asked which periodicals he reads. His first response was: "The Economist, every page". -L.
