A lei de Cunningham afirma que "a melhor maneira de obter a resposta certa na Internet não é fazer uma pergunta, é postar a resposta errada."

A lei tem o nome de Ward Cunningham, pai do wiki. Segundo o Steven McGeady,^[1] o autor da lei, Wikipedia poderia ser a manifestação mais conhecida desta lei.^[2]

A lei de Cunningham pode ser considerada o equivalente do refrán francês "prêcher lhe faux pour savoir lhe vrai" (pregar a falsidade por saber a verdade). Em "Duty Calls," xkcd cita um conceito similar.^[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.
