Isenberg v. Zittrain on Voice of America

Adam Phillips at The Voice of America has done an interesting story, written, streamed and podcast , on Jonathan Zittrain's red-zone, green-zone idea.

Sample quote from Zittrain:

It is, to me, astounding," he says "to find ourselves with this collective instrumentality where one person or a handful of people, somewhere in the world, maybe for fun or maybe for money, maybe because they want fame, can write some interesting new software that does something new, make it available over the internet, and if it turns out to be popular, before they even know it, tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of people could be running the software in a matter of days.
Sample quote from Isenberg:

The problem is the people in the red zone are very different than the people in the green zone. The edgy 'internauts' who are out there exploring what might be illegal or dangerous might actually not provide a good market test for Mr. and Mrs. Generic Vanilla internet user.
