Ur-blogger Dave Winer is critical of the civil justice system, and predicts that bloggers will make it more accountable:
Critics ask if blogging is a field of banality but arming citizens against big corporations is becoming an important part of our economy, and it's for the good. Today, when I tell a company that's taking unfair advantage that I have a blog, nothing happens. In a few years I don't think it'll be like that.
Mr. Winer notes that — at least today — nothing happens when he tells a company he has a blog. He might get farther by telling them he has a lawyer.
