Knowledge/implication/Nozick: if knowledge of something involves the knowledge of it implied,then we know* almost nothing. - You cannot know all the implications.
>Implication.
When the knowledge of the implications is needed, then knowledge is closed under implication.
This is the position of the skepticism.
>Closure, >Skepticism.
Anti-skepticism: knowledge is not closed under (known) implication: you do not need to know^ all the implications. - But we know a lot.
Among other things, we know that we are not in a vat.
>Brains in a vat.},
