Infoanarchism

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This neologism has no wider use outside of the title of the Time article whence it came. There isn't a school or followers of "infoanarchism". It isn't used at Ian Clarke (computer scientist)—the subject of the Time article—or any closely related concept: crypto-anarchism, free culture, etc. Even if the term was used in any cursory form outside this Wikipedia entry, we don't have a more established encyclopedia topic for "people opposed to intellectual property and censorship" to make for a decent redirect retarget (the criticism would just be covered in the parent article), hence the rationale for outright deletion. czar 04:38, 16 June 2017 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete per nom as non-notable neologism from the year 2000 with absolutely no staying power. --Lockley (talk) 01:22, 18 June 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete – Kudos to the original author. Well written, however unsource able.  The only mention is the one Time article and here. ShoesssS Talk 14:07, 23 June 2017 (UTC)
