I think more converstation is needed around this. I agree that ethics is important in the new literacy - afterall, with great power comes great responsibility. However, the idea of intellectual property is relatively new in the history of humanity and gets its strongest support from the West. The creative commons may challenge the way people create and use information, and those that demand money for the use of their ideas may find themselves awefully poor.

RIck Stiles-OldringOverview of Warlick's idea of 21st Century Literacies
-
Students must learn to:
Expose the Truth – Reading remains core to literacy. But we must be willing to expand our notions of reading to include skills to research and find information, gain meaning from what we find, and evaluate the information in order to select that which is most valuable.
Employ the Information – Mathematics remains a core skill, but it is an irrelevant skill unless students learn to analyze, synthesize, manipulate, and add value to digital information, and assemble new and valuable information products that accomplish worthwhile goals.
Express Ideas Compellingly – We will be writing for a long time to come. But if our ideas are to compete with the ideas of others, then we must be able to use images, animation, sound, music, and video along with our words in order to be heard.

Add Sticky Note
I have very briefly described three Es for 21st century literacy. Yet these three sets of skills are sterile and even dangerous without a fourth E-skill that binds them together.
Ethics and information – Information has a new value in the 21st century. Until now, our information was produced and distributed by a few very powerful entities. In the 21st century, we will all be producers and distributors of information, and this changes its value. When we spend our time producing information, it has worth to us. If it helps people do their jobs, make their decisions, solve their problems, or pursue enjoyment, then it has value to them. Information is property in ways that it has never been before, because more and more of us are information property owners, and if students are not learning to respect the information property of other people, then they will not be literate. They will be criminals.
