The first somewhat serious treatment of this I saw was Hughes's DEFCON IV presentation entitled, I believe, "Universal Piracy System."
I'm curious about this...
Did DEFCON IV happen before, or after, the rump session of FC97 (February 26? 1997), when Jason Cronk talked about recursive auctions on geodesic networks? Actually, now that I think about it, Ian Grigg did a talk about the sell-side inverse of the same idea in the same session...
Eric's came first. It was in July 1996. --Steve
