Mr. Cromwell’s reasons for the theft are buried in the fog of history, but it seems possible that had someone told him right before he committed the misdemeanor that it would be the subject of newspaper articles over a century later, he’d have thought twice. The ever-longer memory bestowed upon us by the Internet certainly adds an additional cost to the prospect of committing a crime.There are also dramatic implications for those of us who write—and I don?...
