La legge di Cunningham sancisce che "il miglior modo per ottenere la risposta giusta su Internet non è porre una domanda, è pubblicare la risposta sbagliata."

La legge prende il nome da Ward Cunningham, padre del wiki software. Secondo Steven McGeady,^[1] l'autore della legge, Wikipedia è divenuta la dimostrazione più famosa di questa regola.^[2]

La legge di Cunningham può essere considerata l'equivalente, applicato ad Internet, del detto francese "prêcher le faux pour savoir le vrai" (predicare il falso per sapere il vero). In "Duty Calls," xkcd rimarca un concetto simile^[3].

This was his advice to me in the early 1980s with reference to what was later dubbed USENET, but since generalized to the Web and the Internet as a whole. Ward is now famous as the inventor of the Wiki. Ironically, Wikipedia is now perhaps the most widely-known proof of Cunningham's Law.
