Less Is More: Saving the Internet from Itself

PROJECT TITLE :

Less Is More: Saving the Internet from Itself

ABSTRACT:

Explores the need to guard the content and info gleamed from the Internet while, at the same time, ensure that freedom of access and quality of content remains intact. Claims that there's a choice - do we want to form protection of individual.Net components the owners??? problem for all values of ???owner,??? subject to unpredictable differentiation and a picking of winners and losers by emergent processes that we can maybe still influence but never once more control? Or do we tend to want near monocultures of a few winning platforms whose vastness represents empire and so needs a level of defense that solely a nationstate can provide, if in the least? On the former lies the path of so a lot of science fiction, particularly if the Singularity is imminent. On the latter lies the trail to a state-level management far a lot of invasive than fiat currency and secret standing armies. If neither of these options appeals, now is that the time to use the brakes. Now is the time, individually and collectively, to tamp down risk by tamping down dependence on the Internet. Now is the time to mention that target richness is a disease for that the cure is intolerable.
