[Intro] The original text of Own, Be Owned Or Remain Invisible is an article about Heath Bunting written by James Flint. Bunting posted the article to the Web and made a link to every word contained in the essay that had a website. Heath Bunting is(.com) on(.com) a(.com) mission(.com). The essay began in barely visible gray text several years ago, but as Internet domain names are registered and URL's such as www.a.com and www.is.com come into being, nearly every word is illuminated to reveal the article. Words (and thoughts) are invisible unless they are registered (and thus approved) by the Internet, but "Heath Bunting" remains invisible which also gives the piece reflective irony.
