David Weinberger: The Need for Leeway
We get through life by constantly cutting the people around us some slack. If we were to rigidly and strictly impose every rule and law we would all go mad.
David Weinberger has written a piece on the importance of leeway a while back. In a brief and to the point manner he explains how the digital world enables us to be very strict about rules we define and why that may not be a very good idea.
Being fair and just is not about treating everybody exactly the same way all the time.
